I am excited to share my little Germany boy today for Vintage Thingy Thursday with Suzanne and all the other lovers of things out grandparents handed down, our parents threw out and we bought.
This little musician is 5 inches tall and his wonderful hat feather is a wooden letter opener! His markings are KE 25/0 crown over a w and stamped with a bee inside a V (R) . I have never been able to find him in any of the Hummel books so have no idea if I have a real treasure but for 10 marks at a flee market back in the 70's I'm sure it is worth the $4. I spent.

You're so cute, I got a big kick out of "things our grandparents handed down, our parents threw out and we bought."
Your German figurine is darling! Love his letter opener. Hoping you can find out more about him. I have a Hummel I can't figure out either - or rather I have a figurine from the same company but a different artist, can't find even a smidgen about it.
Happy VTT,
Sally
I sure like this little fellow. What a clever surprise this was! I hope you will come see me soon. I have lots of giveaways going on. Anne
