Front Description
This is a recognition pin given to cast members of The Walt Disney Travel Company in Anaheim for being a top performer for the month. "MAGIC Measures" is the term for Disney’s performance scale that the WDTC cast members are rated on:
M – Make the reservation
A – Add personal service
G – Great guest service
I – Inform & educate guest on services
C – Customize package
This pin is a reflection of Disneyland's Critter Country. There is a white-background vintage Disneyland (resort) marquee sign on the bottom of the pin. Only the first "D" is on a yellow background. At the very bottom of the sign/pin it reads "MAGIC Measures 2009" with a yellow background. At the very beginning (left side) and the very end (right side) of the marquee sign there is a small flag or banner flying from a tall pole - the flag on the left side is red and the flag on the right side is blue. The flags are flying towards the left.
Above the marquee sign is the wooden Critter Country logo sign. Atop that sign are (left to right) a hunny pot spilling over with hunny, the peak of Splash Mountain and Brer Rabbit - with his red spotted kerchief bag packed and tied on the end of a stick - emerging from a hole.
The pin is gold metal with a cross-hatch design on the back and one post. In a box on the back it reads:

This pin measures 1 and 5/8" tall by 1 and 3/4" wide.
Personal Observation: Between October, 2006 and June, 2007 there were eight cast pins of the month at DLR that each reflected a different land at the Disneyland Resort. (Please refer to Pins 49940, 51446, 52082, 52520, 53145, 53637, 54165 and 54956.) The artwork on Pin 54165: DLR - Cast Exclusive - Pin of the Month (May 2007) Critter Country is very reminiscent of the artwork on the pin listed here. It is possible that there may be eight different MAGIC Measures award pins this year and that this year's MAGIC Measures award pins may mirror the eight pins referenced above.
Anyone with additional information is encouraged to post.
