Couple of finds this past week

Thrift stores have been good to me this past week. Found a toner cartridge that I paid 3 bux for and got $77 on fleabay. Today I found these six Capodimonte birds in a plastic bag for 3 bux as well.

Got any more info on those birds ? I'm always looking for new loot. Teach so I may learn.

I don't know a lot about them other than I saw the Capodimonte mark on the bottom and impressed into one of the birds. From what I can see on ebay they usually get about $10 each for these particular type figurines. Like anything else, it's hit or miss. I imagine as a set they would get a bit more. Some of the Capodimonte figures are worth hundreds, so I didn't think it was much of a risk buying these at $.50 each.

There are several different makers marks for Capodimonte, usually an "N" with some sort of crown over the top of it.
