Front Description
I bought this pin at the DS on Michigan Ave. in downtown Chicago during my visit in July of 2012. (On the 11th, specifically.) There were a few other designs for the city of Chicago that I did not purchase, one was sold out the day I returned, sadly.
The front of the pin features "The Windy City" in a pretty hand-written looking font. The background/sky is a light blue. Mickey is in the foreground in a blue sweater, white scarf(blowing in the wind) and yellow shoes. He's holding a glittery red heart. Behind Mickey you can see some bushes/trees and part of Chicago's skyline including the Willis Tower(Formerly known as Sears Tower). The bottom of the pin is a brighter shade of blue and has the word CHICAGO in caps printed in a pretty font.
On the back this pin has two posts with no nubs. It has a waffle pattern of the D in a badge, the DS logo. It isn't bordered and reaches all edges. The back of the pin has three areas, the first is a circle with the DS text logo and around it in a circle it says "Genuine - Original - Authentic". The next section is a square with the mickey head logo and a banner on which it says "Official Pin Trading". There is no year listed on this pin. Below that it says "Chicago" and then "©Disney" and below that "China".
