This M.I.Hummel figurine depicts a young builder laying bricks. It was modeled by Gerhard Skrobek in 1955 and introduced into the U.S. in 1963.

This 5.5" tall figurine bears the TMK4 (Three-line Bee) trademark, dating it around the late 1960s. The model was finally withdrawn from production in 2002.

This particular piece shows a little light crazing around the base.
