PP20001    WDW - Belle Head - 2000 Real Cloisonne - Version 2

Released in October 1999, this pin features the head and neck of BELLE, from Disney's animated THE BEAUTY AND THE BEAST. She is looking forward with her ponytail around her left shoulder. Her hair is tied back with a blue bow, and her white collar is the bottom of the pin.

Please read the following comments and carefully check the back of your pin before cataloguing. There are three different versions of this pin, all with a different PinPics number!

[2000 comment: Some of the early pins were bought at WDW between the dates of 12-24-97 and 1-2-98. The back of a Version 1 pin only has ©Disney and Made in China. Starting in October 1999, it was released with the 2000 logo on the back (Version 2).]

[2024 comment: The Version 3 pin was used at WDW in the Cast Member Lanyard Trading Refresher Packs with a 2002 or 2003 backstamp (PP18128 ). The refresher-pack version of this pin (Version 3) was made in synthetic cloisonne, so Belle's lips are pink, and her skin is a lighter tone. The original cloisonne versions (Versions 1 & 2) were made in genuine cloisonne, so Belle's lips were more of a flesh tone, and and her skin was a darker tone.]
