Further to my previous post I managed to pick up a porcelain figure of the Bamberger Reiter, the head of whom is shown in the Rosenthal advertisement.
The figure is not Rosenthal, however, but is by Aelteste Volkstedter. The logo on the base looks like the post-1945 emblem.
He is 48 cm tall and very imposing, and looks to be unrestored. There seems to be some debate as to who he actually is, possibly Henry II, but the original statue dates from the middle of the 13th century and can be found in Bamberg Cathedral.
The final image is of Henry I who was one of Himmler's idols, and one can see the likeness with the Bamberger.
