1971-1986 Open Edition

Description

Released from the late 1970s to early 1980s as an open edition, this classic pin features a white face of Mickey Mouse with his head turned to the right and smiling expression; his eyes are directed downward and slightly to the left while his mouth displays an open smile revealing a red tongue. This specific design is part of a broader collection created by Roz Simon and Wendy Niven during their ceramic jewelry company Flights of Fancy, which spanned from the late s through the early s, utilizing Disney licensing for various retailers like Bloomingdales, Macy's, and international boutiques before becoming known for transforming popular objects like crayon boxes and chewing gum packaging into colorful enamel pins. Although the pin features a glued-on post back with no backstamp to distinguish its vintage status from factory-issued items, it remains an authentic piece of pop culture memorabilia available in secondary markets globally.
