Front Description
One of four VILLAINS pins originally released in 1998 and then featured as part of the WDW Millennium Celebration pins released in late 1999. This version (backstamp) was sold until it was re-ordered with the 2000 Hand in Hand logo on the back. Each of the pins features a different Disney villain portrait inside an ornate, antique-bronze frame which resembles the Magic Mirror from "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs". The top of the pin was coated with epoxy, which has yellowed with age. Characters in the series include the Old Hag, Maleficent, Chernabog, and Captain Hook.
This pin features MALEFICENT, from Disney's animated SLEEPING BEAUTY, holding her scepter. The background is green.
This pin listing is for the version with the 2000 Hand in Hand logo on the back. There is a separate listing for the earlier version with a different backstamp. Please check your pin carefully before cataloguing.
This pin was listed in "The Walt Disney World Resort Pin Catalog" (published by Disney in 1999 for the 2000 Millennium Celebration).
