GENERAL INFORMATION. In 1963, both Sebastian Miniatures and the Mi. I. Hummel figurines (manufactured by Goebel, West Germany) were distributed by Schmid in the United States. In a prophetically unique combination, Baston and Goebel proposed a collaboration of Baston's popular themes and Goebel's fired ceramic production capability. After a few sets of four groupings were fired from Baston's Ceramastone designs, both parties decided against further collaboration.
In this first grouping, Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn are large in Ceramastone and smaller in procelain. The base of Henry VIII shows the historic joining of Prescott Baston and the Hummel "bee." The figures are 9-10 inches high.From Dr. Glenn Johnson's book, The Sebastian Miniature Collection.
