This delightful porcelain bell was painstakingly hand-painted and sculpted. The “Thoughtful” bell features an enchanting little boy, with tousled golden brown hair, wearing a light green shirt underneath a bright orange jacket. A sky-blue neckerchief, brown shorts and light blue socks complete his ensemble. The apple-cheeked, angelic lad is reading a book that is too big for his little lap, but he is making the best of it. He has marked a certain place on one of the pages of the book with his right index finger. The darling little boy’s left index finger is raised toward his chin, as if to say “Hmmm”, it is a thoughtful pose to be sure! On the back of the bell, the date “1980” is in a lovely shade of red, with the M.I. Hummel signature beneath. On the inside are the bell’s information and the blue Goebel stamp, with the copyright date of 1978. This 1980 Hummel Annual Bell is a piece of art that you will treasure for a lifetime!

M.I. Hummel’s signature is found at the lower left point, with the blue Goebel insignia at the lower right. Stunning artwork adorns the front of the star, showing an angelic little girl, hair in pigtails, tied at the ends with blue bows. Her hair and orange scarf are charmingly lifted up in the breeze, as she rides a red wooden sled. She is on her way to make her Christmas delivery of the wrapped presents, sitting on the back of the sled, replete with ribbons and bows. The young lass is warmly dressed in a red coat and a matching knit hat with a pompom on top; her green mittens and thick, blue woolen stockings complete her ensemble. A precious doll baby is firmly held by the little girl’s hands, as it rides in front of her on the sled.
