Disneyland Resort Starbucks It's a Small World Hippo Pin

This vibrant pin is part of the popular Disney | Starbucks collection, specifically designed for the Disneyland Resort. It features the iconic purple hippo from the classic 'it's a small world' attraction, which originally debuted at the 1964-1965 New York World's Fair. The pin design incorporates the beloved 'it's a small world' clock face, adding a touch of nostalgic whimsy to the aesthetic. As an Open Edition pin, it is widely accessible, yet it remains highly sought after due to the massive crossover appeal between Disney pin collectors and Starbucks merchandise enthusiasts. The pin features a Dangle element at the bottom that humorously reads 'STARBI CKS', mimicking the famous coffee chain's branding. The background utilizes a striking pink and teal sunburst pattern, while glitter accents on the Disneyland Resort logo and the dangle add a premium, textured finish. The hippo itself is depicted with floral patterns, staying true to the artistic style of Mary Blair, the legendary Imagineer who defined the look of the attraction. Collectors value this piece for its clever mashup of Disney park history and modern lifestyle branding. It serves as a fun, colorful tribute to one of the most recognizable attractions in Disney history.
