Watch for the opening of our Store on ebay!!! DESCRIPTION: This figurine has been sitting in my grandmother's china cabinet for as long as I can remember, as you can see by the signature, it is a first run, 1963(4) that would be considered more rare, please review information listed below regarding signature dates. This M. I. Hummel Figurine The Bulder was first introduced in the United States in 1963. The Hummel Figurine was Temporarily Withdrawn in 2002. The Builder has boy carrying a pair of bricks. Collectors and admirers all over the globe agree that the artistry and quality of authentic M.I.Hummel products are beyond compare. Only genuine M.I.Hummel figurines are created according to the strict quality control procedures established by Goebel and Sister Hummel back in the 1930's. THE SIGNATURE To determine if a figurine, plate or bell is a genuine M.I.Hummel piece, t are definitive marks of identification. The first is the signature of Sister M.I.Hummel incised on the base of most every piece. When Sister Hummel made her historic contract with Franz Goebel, it was agreed that her signature, her personal stamp of approval, would appear on every piece. It does so, to this day. The only exception appears on figurines without bases or any adequate surface to display the signature. THE GOEBEL BACKSTAMP The other definitive identifier is the Goebel stamp on the underside of the figurine -- the official Goebel trademark. Though the look of the trademark has varied since 1935, every authentic M.I.Hummel figurine will have a Goebel stamp on its underside. Over the years, any change in the backstamp has been a source of excitement for M.I.Hummel collectors. Most of the known marks used over the years are shown However, from time to time, a rare and undocumented variation may surface.
