Front Description
Of all the characters in Sleeping Beauty, the one that everyone remembers, even decades later, is the wicked fairy, Maleficent. She is one of the finest creations ever to come out of the Disney studio--and the brilliant transformation of her into the Dragon to flight Phillip merely adds to the strength of the characterization. Even her name -- a wonderful combination of "malice" and "malevolent" -- testifies to her pure evil.
Disney succeeded in making Maleficent come to life in both her forms. Tall and thin with a black horned headdress and a capacious, swirling cloak, with a contemptuous face highly arched eyebrows, with a long neck that seems to be nothing more than thinly covered vertebrae, she is a terrifying figure even in her rare moments of repose. Her driving emotion is hatred -- hatred of all that is good.
The frame is 24 x 27.5 cm. The pin is 7 x 4 cm. The framing on this pin is a purple mat with a black frame - matching the pin.
The pin says "Limited Edition 2000" on the back.
Same design as 20685, but this frame is different (black frame and purple matte are larger at DLRP), the color of the paper isn't white but light yellow (cream) and the SKU is different.
DLRP frame is "numbered": "LE/2000"
The 1st two paragraphs in this listing are from a creme-colored card encased in a plastic envelope attached to the back of the frame.
Beneath those two paragraphs, on the right, is a line drawing of Maleficent in the same pose as the actual pin, but bigger (3.75 W x 1.75 H).
And in the lower left corner of this card, in small bold pront, the following two lines:
Limited Edition 2000
