Figurines Prove Popular For Collector Of Any Age Dinner Antwar to Previou Putll Authentic "Hummel" ceramic figurines have been top-ranking collector's items among fans of all ages for nearly a quarter century and a favorite gift item. Made exclusively by the W. Goebel Company of Bavaria, West Germany, they are in stantly recognizable by the me ticulous craftsmanship, subtle coloring, and the indented "M. I. Hummel" seen on the base of every piece. The secret of these figurines' appeal lies in their unaffected, childlike, caught-in-action feel ing. Be it a little girl clutching a few wilted posies, a young boy merrily on the way to mar ket, or a child frolicking with pets, their moods and manners are typical of tiny people the world over, and reflect the timeless dreams of eternal childhood. Charm Seen This wide eyed, ingenuous charm emanates from the ar tist's deep love and understand ing of children. Berta Hummel, whose original sketches have been the basis for these ceram fic figurines made by the W. Goebel Co., was one of six chil dren who grew up in a home in Massing, Bavaria, where music and art were as natural as air and water. Born in 1909, whe demonstrat ed her talent and imagination at an early age, beginning by sketching and painting portraits of her young school friends. Throughout her formal art training, including the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich, Berta Hummel continued her warm interest in children, artistically! as well as personally. Convent Entered An outstanding example of the fact that art and religion often go hand in hand, Berta Hummel entered the Convent of Siesscn near Salgau and took her final vows as a Franciscan nun in 1934. In the convent, as Sister SI. Innocentia. she continue in make sketches of children that have since made her and the convent famous throughout the worm. Exclusive riehts fnr tion of three-dimensional Amir. lines from the original art were given to W. Goebel in Bavaria, where a skilled staff of artiste began to translate the sketches into the life-like, beautifully col ored, hand finished figurines. Designs Approve When first manufactured. PV- ery design was approved by Sis ter Hummel. Now, a duly ap pointed nun at the convent an proves new figurines. Each design is made with painstaking care, from t h e moulding of individual arms, legs and other pieces; putting them together by hand to make tne one perfect unit: slow. can ful glazing processes in various jKilns, and meticulous hand col ing. All this IS done bv crafts men who are specialists in the particular phase they carry out from Lme to time, new 'Hummel" fieurines sketchorl by the artist before her death in 1946, are turned over to the W. Goebel Company for their interpretation in ceramics.
