A very kind member told me what these are calledd and what kind of wood they are. That was about 2 months ago, wrote it down and I have lost the note. I believe she said they are German. They only measure 1 1/2 to 2 inches tall, tiny little things but so very cute. Anyone know anything about them?

I really apologize! I just found the paper my Mom wrote about them being from Germany and WWII. I really thank you all!

@EuropeanGoodies, My Mom is who had told me my Dad brought them home from Germany in 1945. Would this be about the correct date?
Now, I saw it and can [URL removed] yes ;)

The Antiques Roadshow also did refer to these as being “A Group of WW2 Critter Bugs Playing Band”…
Ah Jeepers, sure wish I could remember the date the show ran on TV…
- Anyways, Good luck!
