TMK context
TMK-2 Full bee 1950-1959
Full bee pieces are widely researched and can outperform later marks for the same mold.
TMK-3 Stylized bee 1957-1964
A transitional early mark with stronger demand than most 1970s and later examples.
TMK-4 Three-line mark 1964-1972
Usually a modest adjustment unless paired with a scarce mold or large size.
TMK-5+ Last bee or newer Goebel/Hummel mark 1972-2009+
Later production is common; price against completed sold comps rather than older guide-book highs.

Seller notes
- Photograph the HUM number, trademark mark, any paper label, and all damage before pricing.
- Search sold comps with the exact HUM number plus the common title, then adjust for TMK and condition.
- If paired with School Boy, list both HUM numbers and marks.
Warnings
- Check slate, braids, hands, and base.
- Paint rubs on the dress and slate should be disclosed.
- Do not treat this seed range as an appraisal or a guaranteed sale price.
- Verify size variants because downsized, larger, and paired versions can price very differently.
- Do not price it from School Girls group results.
