Front Description
Rock Star Mickey Mouse is one of at least five pins in a series. The pins came mounted on a large black embossed sale card that states, "Handcrafted and Made in Germany, Authentic Austrian Crystals."
Bully produced figurines, so it is likely they were converted into pins and then sold.
Mickey stands right, body turned forward and head facing right. He is dressed in blue jeans, yellow shirt, blue tie, pink jacket, blue and white tennis shoes and green sunglasses. He holds a turquoise blue guitar.
Throughout his design are multi-colored jewels (advertised as Austrian crystals). They are found on his guitar, sunglasses and tie. To complete the peculiar design is a gold jingle bell placed on the sole of each foot.
A gold straight back clasp is on the back. The pin measures 2 5/8" (67 mm) wide by 3 5/8" (92 mm) tall. There are markings of each shoe bottom: "© 1988 THE WALT DISNEY COMPANY" and "BULLY, GERMANY, MADE IN EUROPE."
Other pins in the series include Rocker Goofy, Baseball Batter Goofy (#78238), Matador Mickey (#78238) and Mickey in Formal (#67427).
