THE SKETCH ART OF SISTER MARIA INNOCENTIA BEGAN TO APPEAR ON IN THE 1930S IN GERMANY AND SWITZERLAND, MOSTLY PASTORAL DRAWINGS OF CHILDREN. THE SWISS ART PUBLISHER ARS SACRA WAS INVOLVED IN THE EARLY POPULARIZATION OF THE ART ON POSTCARDS. HUMMEL'S "ART CARDS" BECAME POPULAR THROUGHOUT GERMANY, CATCHING THE EYE OF FRANZ GOEBEL, PORCELAIN MAKER AND HEAD OF W. GOEBEL PORZELLANFABRIK. GOEBEL ACQUIRED RIGHTS TO TURN HUMMEL'S DRAWING INTO FIGURINES, PRODUCING THE FIRST LINE IN 1935. GOEBEL WAS ONE OF MANY MID-SIZE PORCELAIN FIRMS COMPETING IN THE US MARKET AND FRANZ GOEBEL´S KNACK FOR NOVELTY MARKETING CAUSED THE FIGURINES TO BECOME POPULAR IN THE US DURING THE 1930S. THE BASE FOR THE POPULARITY WAS AMONG GERMAN IMMIGRANTS ON THE EAST COAST. TODAY, HUMMEL FIGURINES ARE PRODUCED BY MANUFAKTUR RÖDENTAL IN GERMANY AND ARE THE FASTEST GROWING INVESTMENT COLLECTIBLE IN 38 COUNTRIES.
