Hidden Mickey 2017 Wave A: Fruit Pin - Apple

This charming pin is part of the 2017 Hidden Mickey Wave A: Fruit Pin series, released at Walt Disney World. The design features a stylized apple shaped like the iconic Mickey Mouse silhouette, split between vibrant red and deep pink tones. A bright green leaf sits atop the right ear, adding a pop of color to the fruit-themed design. A notable detail is the small silver Mickey Mouse icon located on the lower left side, which serves as the signature mark for this popular Cast Member hidden collection. These pins were originally distributed as Cast Member Gift With Purchase or trade items, making them a staple for park-goers seeking to complete their sets. As an Open Edition pin, it offers a fun and accessible way for newer collectors to start their journey while remaining a beloved piece for seasoned pros. Mickey Mouse, the legendary mascot of the Walt Disney Company, has been a central figure in animation since his debut in Steamboat Willie in 1928. His transformation into various food items has become a recurring and highly sought-after motif in Disney pin collecting. Because these pins were primarily acquired through trading with Cast Members, finding them in pristine condition is always a highlight for any collector.
