More Information
The most noted variation on this figurine is the position of the boy's fingers on the flute. You can find figurines with some of the fingers extended while other versions have all the fingers down. It should also be noted that there is a beautiful blue Hum 85 in the 7.50 size, while all of the others have a brown jacket. It seems peculiar that normal Serenades were not painted in blue since that is the color on the original artwork. The 12.50 inch size is part of the "Millennium Love" series, which included Sweet Music, Little Fiddler, Band Leader and Soloist. Made in Germany.
