4.0 out of 5 stars Mr. Robert Millers wisdom and knowledge under one cover, August 6, 1999

By A Customer

A nicely illustrated book of Hummels as seen through Robert Miller. This book gives his details on the rarities and different variations that are found among Hummel figurines. It is a great reference book and I've given copies to all my friends who collect, buy and sell Hummels
