Hidden Mickey 2011 DLR - Shirts - Scrooge McDuck

This collectible pin features Scrooge McDuck, the iconic wealthy duck first introduced in Carl Barks' 1947 comic 'Christmas on Bear Mountain.' The design is part of the 2011 Hidden Mickey series released at the Disneyland Resort, specifically within the 'Shirts' sub-set. The pin is shaped like a black T-shirt and features a stylized, minimalist graphic of Scrooge McDuck’s face, complete with his signature pince-nez glasses. A small, subtle Mickey Mouse icon is positioned on the sleeve area, a hallmark of the Hidden Mickey pin trading program. As an Open Edition pin, it was originally distributed to Cast Members for pin trading at the Disneyland Resort, making it a staple for traders. Scrooge McDuck remains a beloved character for his appearances in the classic 'DuckTales' animated series, which debuted in 1987. Collectors often seek out these shirt-themed pins for their unique, contemporary design and the fun challenge of completing the various waves found in the Hidden Mickey collections. The minimalist, monochromatic aesthetic makes this a distinct piece compared to more traditional, vibrant character pins. It serves as a great entry point for new collectors while remaining a nostalgic piece for long-time fans of Scrooge's adventures.
