Front Description
Every day, millions of children rushed home from school for a celebration. Led by Mickey Mouse, the celebration was filled with roaring trumpets, flags and banners waving, and a very special elephant named Dumbo and his friend Timothy Mouse. The grand finale was Donald Duck's virtuoso playing of a giant gong. The reverie sounded the beginning of the Mickey Mouse Club, the beloved children's television program that debuted in 1955. In honor of the show's 45th anniversary, these enamel pins bring to life favorite moments of the Mickey Mouse Club's opening sequence. Presented against a backdrop inspired by the original animation, the pins were beautifully crafted with exacting detail. They might just inspire you to rush home to see them. Limited Edition 1000.
