This highly collectible Disney pin showcases Sally Slater, famously known as the 'Tightrope Girl' or 'Tightrope Walker,' one of the beloved '999 Happy Haunts' from The Haunted Mansion attraction. The pin beautifully captures her iconic stretching portrait pose, where she is depicted balancing delicately on a tightrope while holding a parasol. This particular pin is part of The Haunted Mansion Mystery Collection 2020, a highly sought-after series for fans of the classic attraction. Released in 2020, specifically on November 16, 2020, this collection features 9 unique pins, all designed to assemble into a larger puzzle that evokes the pattern of the Stretching Room ceiling within the attraction. Sally Slater's backstory is deeply intertwined with The Haunted Mansion; her portrait in the stretching room reveals her untimely demise as she falls into the jaws of an alligator. The Haunted Mansion itself first opened its doors at Disneyland on August 9, 1969, and quickly became a fan-favorite attraction. As a Limited Release (LR) pin, it was available for a finite period at various Disney Parks, including Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort. The allure of mystery sets, combined with the enduring popularity of The Haunted Mansion and its iconic characters, makes this pin a desirable addition for collectors, with Pin & Pop rating its rarity as 'uncommon'. The pins in this series also feature laser print elements and glow-in-the-dark accents, adding to their unique charm.
