Animals Animals have long been one of the most popular and oldest subjects of German porcelain manufacturers, Allach was no exception. The animals figures created at Allach were generally affordable for the German working class and were produced in larger quantities than any other type of figures. As Himmler said in 1943, "No other people on earth have such a respectful attitude toward animals like we German" Indeed, of the 88 offerings in the 1938/39 catalog, nearly 40 percent are animal figures.
