Description: MEMORIES OF YESTERDAY I PRAY THE LORD MY SOUL TO KEEP 1991 MUSICAL FIGURINE 525596 & FIGURINE 527017 This auction is for pair of adorable collectible items from Enesco. They both feature a blonde haired girl wearing pink pajamas with a matching bow and her doll at one side and a brown teddy bear on the other. A green ball is also near her on the floor. Her eyes are closed and her hands clasped as she says a prayer. It measures a little over 6” high x 4 1/4” wide x 4 ¼” deep and weighs 12 ounces unpackaged. Printed on the bottom is the Maker’s Mark of Enesco/Memories of Yesterday with the text, “I Pray Thee Lord My Soul to Keep, 1991 Enesco Corporation, Lucie Attwell, Ltd., All Rights Reserved Worldwide 525596. The song is Brahms’ “Lullaby.” The figurine is an ornament of the same girl - it measures a little under 3 1/2" high x 2" wide x 1 1/2" deep and is dated 1995, Figurine #527017. They are both in excellent condition with no chips/cracks/crackling. The Memories of Yesterday collection from Enesco was introduced in 1988. It is a collection of porcelain bisque figurines based on the illustrations of the British artist Mabel Lucie Attwell (1879-1964). Mabel Lucie Attwell's charming depictions of chubby children in everyday situations have a timeless appeal and their translation into Memories of Yesterday figurines retains that nostalgic and heartwarming feel. To more accurately capture the essence of the original illustrations and the time period they represent, Memories of Yesterday figurines are coated in a wash to give them a softer and more antique look. Along with the attention to detail and carefully selected color palette, the resulting figurines are beautifully authentic recreations of Attwell's original artwork. As with many other Enesco brands, a unique annual production mark was stamped on the bottom of the figurines to indicate the year in which they were produced. Annual production mark symbols were also inspired by Mabel Lucie Attwell and include a teacup, flower and teardrop. (SEE IMAGES). Original box is not included, however, it will be well packaged for mailing. Shipping is $9 within the U.S. only. See my other auctions (including other Memories of Yesterday figurines, Boyds Bears, Hummels, etc.) that can be combined to reduce postage costs. The winning bidder agrees to send payment within 5 days of auction. Any questions, E-mail me. Thank you.
