Oswald the Lucky Rabbit 95th Anniversary - Still Lucky D23 Exclusive Pin

This D23 (Disney fan club) exclusive pin celebrates the 95th Anniversary of Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, one of Walt Disney's earliest and most iconic creations. Originally debuting in 1927 in the short 'Trolley Troubles', Oswald holds a special place in animation history as the predecessor to Mickey Mouse. This Limited Edition (LE 1500) pin features a monochromatic, vintage-style design of a joyful Oswald with his arms raised, set against a circular background accented with stars. The text 'Still Lucky!' appears at the bottom in a stylized, retro font, emphasizing his enduring legacy within the Disney company. Released in 2022, this pin serves as a tribute to the character's long-awaited return to the Disney fold after decades of being owned by Universal. The silver-toned metal finish gives the pin a classic, timeless aesthetic that appeals to animation historians and vintage character collectors alike. As a D23 exclusive, the pin was limited in distribution, making it a sought-after piece for those curating a comprehensive Oswald or historical Disney character collection. It captures the charm of the 1920s rubber-hose animation style that defined the early era of the Walt Disney Studio. Collectors appreciate this piece for its historical significance and its role in honoring the foundation of the modern Disney empire.
