Front Description
This pin was given to guests who won a random drawing at the Pin Celebration 2003 — A Journey Through Time. The pin says "Disney's Pin Celebration 2003" and September 19-21". The back of the pin has the 2003 pin trading logo, ©Disney - China. There is no edition size stamped on the pin.
Twice during Saturday's event (and rumored to happen twice on Sunday), event guests were selected from a drawing of completed Pin Partner forms. Five guests at a time were selected to color a specially made demonstration pin that showed how color is added to pins and then heated to completion. Guest were able to choose two colors out of four and color in the two Mickey head shapes that represent the two 0's in 2003. While the lucky guests waited for their created pins to bake and dry, the guests were presented with a "factory made" completed pin identical to the one the guests just made (except for the two colors).
So, each selected guest received 2 of these pins (one they colored and one pre-colored). The Managers for the event were also given the chance to color and receive this pin. There were a total of 10 selected guests on Saturday and if there are 10 on Sunday that will mean 40 pins went to guests. Then there were those Managers that also got the pin.
This pin is in an annual series of paint-your-own-pins with Pin #35976.
