Mickey Silhouette and Flag (stars and stripes)

This vibrant Open Edition pin features a classic Mickey Mouse silhouette set against a patriotic stars and stripes flag design, celebrating American pride with the iconic Disney mascot. It was released as part of the “All American Booster Pack” series in 2018, available at both Disneyland Resort (DLR) and Walt Disney World (WDW) with a release date of July 13, 2018. The booster pack itself consists of five pins, all sharing a patriotic theme. Mickey Mouse, co-created by Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks, made his public debut in the animated short "Steamboat Willie" on November 18, 1928, solidifying his status as the enduring icon and mascot of The Walt Disney Company. Collectors often seek out Mickey Mouse pins due to his universal appeal and historical significance within Disney lore. The patriotic theme of this particular pin adds another layer of desirability, especially for those who collect pins related to holidays or Americana. As an Open Edition release, it was more widely available upon its initial launch compared to Limited Edition pins, making it a great entry point for new collectors or a charming addition for seasoned enthusiasts looking for classic designs.
