mm2285

German Pink pigs, kissing at water trough vGerman pink pigs kissing at a heart shaped trough are 2.5" tall and just as cute as can be. There is no mark on the base, which indicates that they date from around 1890. Probably exported to the US prior to the enactment of the McKinley Tariff Act of 1890, which required that all imported goods entering the country after March 1, 189l be marked with the name of the county of origin. They are in great condition with no chips, cracks or damage of any kind. Their little ears and tails are all intact. Just a delightful memory of the past.

mm2290

German Lusterware salt and pepper lady Lusterware Salt and Pepper Lady with milk jugs is 4"tall, and her head comes off so that you can put another condiment there. The base has the word Germany inscribed, along with 1890. 1890 may be the year of manufacture, or it may be the product number. A similar set, with the central figure of a clown, is shown in Helene Guarnaccia’s Salt & Pepper Shakers IV, on page 113. His manufacturing date is shown as 1920, and his value is shown as $160 to $200. I think this set is cuter, and may be older. But I have listed her for only $130, shipping included to the 48 lower states.

mm2282

German Pink Pigs in Purse German Pink Pigs in Purse are 3.5" tall, and each has a delightful expression. Ears are all intact, and there are no chips, cracks or other damage. The purse rim is trimmed in gold, and there is a factory pin prick under the glaze. As usual on these pieces, there is no mark, but this can be nothing other than vintage German Pink Pigs, dating from around 1890. The lack of mark indicates that they were probably exported to the US prior to the enactment of the McKinley Tariff Act of 1890, which required that all imported goods entering the country after March 1, 189l be marked with the name of the county of origin.

mm2292

Hutschenreuther Spaniel Dogs, U S Zone Hutschenreuther Spaniel Dogs have the Hutschenreuther mark on the base, along with Kunstabteituag, U S Zone. That dates this set from 1945 to 1949. There are 5.75" tall and 11" long. The one ahead is sitting, while the other one is standing. There are no chips; there is no crazing. There is a practically invisible hairline that I almost didn’t find. It’s on the back of the standing dog, approx 1.5" long. For this reason, my original price of $405 has been thrown out and replaced by $294.

mm2241

German pink pig in a teacup German Pink Pig in a Teacup is 2.5" tall and unmarked. As stated in Animal Figures, by Mike Schneider, German pink pigs were made around the turn of the century. The unmarked pigs are the oldest, made prior to 1890 when the McKinley Tariff Act required imports to be marked with the country of origin. Those marked "Made IN" were probably produced after the revision of the Act in 1914 This pig is has a smile on his face and perfect ears! There is an 1/8th inch section on the rim that it either a painted chip or a factory flaw. I really can’t say which it is, only that it does not detract from this cutie. Other than this, this excellent example of Old Germany is free of any damage.

Vintage bisque doll with wings and blue box Vintage bisque doll with wings and blue bow is 2´tall and nearly 3" long. There are no marks, so I don’t know who made her. She was in my mother’s collection, so I believe that she comes from Germany, around 1930. Her hands and fingers are prefect, as are her wings and hair bow. There are no chips, cracks or other damage. She’s delightful!

Friedl Boy on Showshoes Friedl Boy on Snowshoes is marked as Friedel, Germany, Handgemalt – or hand made. It was made prior to the second world war, as the stamp is not W. Germany. And the style, paint, and teensy crazing show that it was not made in modern Germany. This delightful figure is 5" tall and full of charm. There are no chips, and there are no repairs. He’s in excellent condition, and he’s sure to bring back fond memories of ski trips you’ve enjoyed.
