This pin measures 1 1/16" square and is identical to pin 45901 except the color of the planets is orange instead of yellow.

This pin, as with many other Euro Disney sponser pins, was given out prior to the official opening of EuroDisney. During the two weeks prior to the April 12, 1992 opening, guests of the sponsers (such as Coca-Cola, Kodak, etc) were invited to visit the park and enjoy the attractions. These special days were usually accompanied by a ceremony with a small show dedicating the sponser's attraction. These pins were handed out to the guests and were never sold.
