Front Description
This finely detailed pin made of gilded metal features the traditional company Disney "D" and Tinker Bell flying above Sleeping Beauty's Castle (Le Château de la Belle au Bois Dormant) spraying her pixie dust, enchanting the Park.
Below, "TOUR GUIDE" is engraved. The clasp on the back of this pin runs up and down, not side to side like the DL or WDW Cast "D" pins.
There is no information written on the back.
It was worn by hostesses at the Disneylend Hotel (the most expansive one, located at the park entrance) who escorted VIPs throughout the Magic Kingdom during the early days of EuroDisney, now known as DLRP.
It has been retired for long, I don't remember having seen it after 1993-1994 (the park opened on april 1992).
Though not truly a limited edition, this brooch has been produced in very limited quantities, and is not often seen.
Pins out of use from 1994 till 2002 because they were lost. After the Guest relations office moved they have found these "Brooches" when they were cleaning up the former office. Now they re use them. Very beautiful. Measures 6x6 cm. Gold plated silver!!!
As with most cast costume pieces, this pin does not have a copyright on the back.
