These two Vienna Woods Fine China by Mann Porcelain Figurines of Chinese Royalty are marked on the base as Limited Edition #42 and #57.
I know that Seymour Mann used to be part of Lipper & Mann and started his own company in 1963.
I'd like to know when this set of figurines was made, how many were in the "Limited Edition", and what you think they're worth. I found 1 set for sale on ebay for $100 with shipping. No other's seems to have been sold for several years. I can't find any history on this set.
Thanks in advance!
