Haunted Mansion - Hitchhiking Ghosts - Phineas - 2007 Hidden Mickey

This collectible pin features Phineas, one of the three iconic Hitchhiking Ghosts from the beloved Haunted Mansion attraction at Walt Disney World. Phineas is depicted in his signature light blue suit and white top hat, with his right thumb extended in a hitchhiking gesture, and his left hand holding a light blue carpet bag. A discreet dark brown Mickey Mouse icon is visible on his bag, identifying this as a "Hidden Mickey" pin. Released in 2007, this pin is part of a Limited Release (LR) series, meaning it was originally distributed to Cast Members for trading rather than being sold directly to guests, adding to its collectibility. The Haunted Mansion, a classic dark ride, first opened its doors at Disneyland on August 9, 1969, and later at Walt Disney World on October 1, 1971, where these mischievous spirits famously attempt to join guests on their journey home. Phineas, also known as "The Traveler" or Professor Phineas Plump, is characterized as a former snake oil salesman who met his spectral fate while experimenting with a new concoction, forever keeping his trusty carpet bag by his side. This pin is highly sought after by collectors who appreciate the Haunted Mansion's rich history, the enduring popularity of its ghostly inhabitants, and the challenge of acquiring these Cast Member-exclusive Hidden Mickey pins. It is one of a three-pin set featuring the Hitchhiking Ghosts within the 2007 Hidden Mickey collection.
