Rating:  Summary: Excellent for Amateurs Review: Even though it's proclaimed by expert collectors as the absolute source of information about Hummel figurines, Robert Miller's reference work is easy for amateurs as well. He provides insightful guidance in determining value and quality as well as interesting tidbits about production and variations in the figurines. His work is referenced by many sellers in internet auctions, but is also helpful in figuring out just what you already have. As a rank beginner, I had no problem in following his material and ascertaining the value of an inherited collection. It was also useful in helping me determine additions that I wanted to make to the collection.
Rating:  Summary: Most Precise and Knowledgeable Hummel BIBLE on the Market Review: I have all, since the first publication, of Robert Miller's Price Guide to MI Hummel Figurines, Plates, Miniatures and More. Mr. Miller has all the knowledge one would expect & want to find in his books after much research and many trips to Germany to gain this knowledge. This is THE HUMMEL BIBLE! I highly recommend this book to all Hummel collectors or to anyone interested in the collecting of fine arts. Very well written with explicit details about Sister MI Hummel's life in Massing, Germany & her schooling. Each known Hummel is pictured & tells of the Master Artist who molded each three dimentional figurine from the drawings by Sister beginning in the 1930's to the present TMK markings. A great investment for Insurance purposes when appraising your figurines by The Hummelking!
Rating:  Summary: Most complete information for new collector of Hummels Review: I inherited several figurines and knew very little about Hummels. I was able to decipher the marks on the bottom of each piece to determine the type and value of my collection. It has complete information yet easy to understand to the beginner and a valuable tool for collecting Hummels.
Rating:  Summary: M.I. Hummell & Robert Miller a winning combination Review: Miller's April 2000 price guide is, as usual, the very best guide to hummell collecting & prices anywhere & at any price! This book is a MUST have to anyone that is a collector or is even thinking about collecting. Mr. Miller is the absolute authority on hummell! Thanks Mr. Miller you have again given us more than what we have come to expect. Ron Altman
Rating:  Summary: Great resource Review: not only is this a complete guide -- but it is so easy to use -- anyone owning or buying Hummel's should have this -- I only wish I could find Guides like this for my other collectables --
Rating:  Summary: Hummels are Great! Review: This book is very well illustrated, well layed-out, easy to use, and the pictures are very beautiful. It's full of information, explains more than I expected, and it is a MUST for Hummel collectors.
