PP90703    Japan - Pooh - Pear - Fruit - Dome - JDS

Winnie the Pooh sits facing forward in this glittery bubble dome round pin. Pooh is wearing a large pear as a hat on his head and yellow shorts. Between his hands Pooh holds a whole pear. Whole and sliced pears surround Pooh. The pin background is white. Pin measures 1 inch diameter. Printed on the lower inside of the bubble is "©Disney. Based on the 'Winnie the Pooh' works Copyright A. A. Milne and E. H. Shephard."

Characters in series: All Pooh in different fruit costumes: Grapes, Watermelon, Pear, Strawberry, Cantaloupe, Lemon, Strawberry Watermelon and Pear on a single pin, Watermelon face close up, Strawberry face close up, all 6 fruits on one pin.

I obtained a pin very similar to this off of a lanyard last year at EPCOT. My Pooh is dressed in a yellow costume resembling a pear. The background is orange and white with pear illustrations as opposed to the yellow/orange/green of this pin. When I traded for the pin, it was still on its card. The card has an illustration of a basket and says "Winnie the Pooh" on the front. The back titles the pin as "Fruit Pooh" and lists its price as 300 yen. The bottom of the card says the Disney store, so I am almost positive that both my pin and this pin are from a series of bubble pins featuring Pooh dressed up as various fruits and were available at Disney Stores in Japan.
