Front Description
The letter "Y" in DISNEY is portrayed by this parrot from the Tiki Room area of Adventureland. It's part of a framed set (#72092) that uses park icons to help spell out "WALT DISNEY WORLD."
The parrot - which does not resemble any of the four main bird stars inside the Tiki Room - is at right facing right. It is red with white face and "beard," yellow wing and blue tail. It sits on a perch. To its left is the tower of the Tiki Room.
The pin measures 1 3/8" (35 mm) wide by 2 1/8" (55 mm) tall. The reverse has a double post for stability; it is of a silver color metal. The reverse has a Mickey head icon pattern, the 2009 Official Disney pin trading logo, "© Disney, Made in China."

This pin is being offered for sale directly to pin collectors from a factory in China. As such no one can guarantee the authenticity of this pin.

Scrapper Alert: The stamping on the back has imitation Mickey heads on it - meaning that the stamping was done after the pin was originally cut out and the Mickey heads don't properly extend to the edges.
While there is no border on this pin - the fakers are getting smarter - if you compare the back of this pin to ANY of the modern stamped pins you will see an immediate difference. The stamping is shallow, is not properly 'cut' on the edges and is uneven
