Practical Pig - Icon Crests / Shield - Hidden Mickey 2019

This charming pin features Practical Pig from the classic 1933 Disney Silly Symphony short, 'Three Little Pigs.' The design is part of the Hidden Mickey 2019 - Three Little Pigs series, which showcases the iconic trio of pigs within individual shield-shaped crests. Practical Pig is depicted in the center of the crest, surrounded by symbolic icons related to his character, including a brick and a trowel, representing his industrious nature and the sturdy house that ultimately saves him from the Big Bad Wolf. As an Open Edition pin released at the Disneyland Resort, it was originally distributed as a Cast Member Hidden Mickey mystery pin, making it a favorite for traders looking to complete their sets. The shield design is clean and minimalist, utilizing a soft yellow enamel that highlights the character artwork. Collectors appreciate this pin for its nod to early Disney animation history and the enduring popularity of the Three Little Pigs. Because Hidden Mickey pins are distributed through Cast Member lanyards and mystery pouches rather than retail shelves, they hold a special place in the trading community. This specific pin serves as a perfect entry point for collectors who enjoy character-focused series or fans of vintage Disney shorts. It is a quintessential example of the fun, accessible designs that defined the 2019 Hidden Mickey collections at the parks.
