Hi Judy, Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. Hummel figures were incredibly popular among collectors in the 1950s-1990s and there are a lot of them on the market, unfortunately with less demand than supply so it is quite rare for individual pieces to be worth more than $5-50 each, at auction. The value can occasionally be boosted if the piece retains its original factory packaging. Based on the photos and information provided, and subject to examination, this is: A vintage MJ Hummel hand-painted porcelain "Apple Tree Boy" collectible figurine made by Wm Goebel, West Germany, bearing the underglaze blue "Stylized Bee/TMK-3 mark in use from 1960 to 1972; also impressed "142/1" Featuring a young boy sitting in a flowering apple tree, marked to the underside. 6 inches tall CONDITION: appears to be in good condition. PROVENANCE: inherited $50-75* *represents a fair-market value for auction purposes; retail or asking price may vary. Please let us know if you have additional items to appraise, and thank you again for using Mearto.
