Hummel Vintage Thursday


Have you visited
http://coloradolady.blogspot.com
lately?  If not, you have really been missing
out on some of the best vintage finds ever. Coloradolady invites you to stop by and say hello.

The year 1935 marked the debut of "M.I. Hummel" figurines.  The trademark in use at the time was the "1923 Wide Crown WG. This trademark was the first ever used on an "Hummel" figurine.  Figurines bearing the above trademark were manufactured
between 1935 and 1937. I am fortunate enough to own two of these little jewels.
This is "Hum 63, "Singing Lesson. If you notice he bears the 1935 trademark.




This is "Chick Girl" Hum 57.  There have been other variations of her made, but this one is from the 1935 series.


I have several Hummels I will be sharing in future posts. However, these two are my most vintage.

I have a collection of Hummels that I dearly love. Some are the tiny ones, some a medium, and some are what I call the regular size. I love them all!♥♫

I have a little girl knitting and singing that my parents brought back from Germany in the 1950s that I dearly love. Yours are so cute! Happy VTT!

LV, Your vintage Hummels are wonderful! I used to work part time in a shop that sold them. I thought they were so very cute, and the customers loved them & scooped them up! Yours are so special - having so much age to them. Thanks for sharing!
