Samson Playing Catch Figurine

This is a figurine made by Samson in about 1880. Samson copied many different makers and did it very well. People often spend good money thinking they are truly 18th century Hoechst but one can tell them apart quite easily if original and copy are side by side. This figurine is of boy and girl playing catch. A very well modelled and painted piece. The figure is 5.5 inches tall, 4.25 inches wide and 2.5 inches deep. It is in great condition with a chip to her hat and apron. The figure is marked underneath with an underglaze blue wheel mark with the crown on top as well as an incised 0, impressed 33 and the red SS mark used by Samson.
