Mickey Mouse Pride Collection 1/5

This vibrant Disney pin features the iconic Mickey Mouse head silhouette, filled with the six distinct colors of the traditional rainbow Pride flag, outlined in a sleek silver-tone metal. The design includes a prominent white circle in the center of Mickey's head, completing the classic Mickey icon. Released in 2020, this cloisonné pin is a cherished part of the Disney Pride Collection, a series dedicated to celebrating the LGBTQIA+ community and its allies. The Walt Disney Company initiated this collection to proudly support the LGBTQIA+ community globally, often collaborating with non-profit organizations. Mickey Mouse, co-created by Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks, made his public debut in the 1928 animated short *Steamboat Willie*, and has since become the enduring mascot and global ambassador for The Walt Disney Company. Collectors highly value this pin for its universally beloved character, its significant and inclusive theme, and its status as an accessible yet meaningful piece within the broader Disney pin trading community. While the prompt identifies it as "1/5," suggesting a specific subset, the overall Rainbow Disney Pride Collection has been noted to include as many as 31 pins, offering a wide array for collectors.
