    Hi All,

    Any information would be much appreciated

    I have to say that by wading through the RSPCA Warehouse I have so far found some great items, and thank everyone for assisting,

    I always think (especially when its for charity) its best to ask if your not sure, this could be rubbish so apologies if I have wasted your time!

    He's a little drummer boy in chalk / plaster with a lovely coloured glaze, lots of chips off the glaze unfortunately, no marks apart from a blue squiggle on the bottom which could be an "S" or "G"

    Martin, chalkware figurine, kind of cute but has had plenty of knocks. Probably mid 20th century, possibly a fairground prize. Normally only a few pounds but I see a cowboy figure on Etsy is asking c£40.

    Goebel was shut down during part of WWII, and a company called Ars Sacra made some chalkware Hummels in the U.S. I found a drummer boy, but he's just a bit different.
