Title: Does anyone know about M.J. Hummel items?
Post by: bob535 on March 16, 2011, 10:21:21 AM

I found this piece, and all I know about Hummel is that people like the items. I am curious to know what the numbers on the back mean. The back of this one has 35/0. It also hangs on walls, and has a small bowl on the front of it. The bowl is too small to hold a plant..maybe water?? It measures 5" from top to bottom.

This was used for Holy Water.

The 35/0 doesn't mean 0 of 35. It is the item humber - isn't rare but isn't mass quantity either.  Yours was made in 1969 - 1970.

Over here they're still very collectable, and my wife would love yours ... in fact anything with sheep or lambs!
