However, their most famous and beloved creations, the M.I. Hummel figurines, were born from a collaboration that began in 1935 with Sister Maria Innocentia Hummel, a Franciscan nun and artist. The company obtained exclusive rights to translate her delightful drawings of children into threedimensional porcelain figurines.The trademarks on the base of these pieces are key to identifying their age. The figurines in this lot bear a "Stylized Bee" (TMK3) and "Three Line Mark" (TMK4) within a V shape, with "W. Germany" printed on the base, which indicates they were produced between 1960 and 1972. The incised numbers on the bottom, such as "82/0" and "2/0," are the official mold numbers assigned to these specific figurine designs, while the "M.I. Hummel" signature confirms their authenticity.
