Haunted mansion Tribute collection - Disney Pin Trading 10th Anniversary: Decade of Magical Trades

This captivating Limited Edition (LE 1000) pin celebrates the 10th Anniversary of Disney Pin Trading, which officially launched in 1999 as part of the Millennium Celebration at Walt Disney World. The pin features a prominent blue banner at the top, elegantly displaying the years "1999" and "2009," signifying a decade of magical trades. Central to the design is a circular emblem declaring "10 Years of Pin Trading." Below this anniversary banner, a separate Pin on Pin element dangles, showcasing a tribute to the iconic Haunted Mansion attraction. This detailed dangle piece depicts the grim, stately facade of the Haunted Mansion, a stretching portrait of a man holding a barrel, and the "Walt Disney World" logo, indicating its origin. This specific pin is part of the "Disney Pin Trading 10th Anniversary: Decade of Magical Trades" series, which comprises 35 pins, each paying homage to popular pin designs from the first ten years of the hobby. Released on July 8, 2010, at Walt Disney World, this pin is highly sought after by collectors due to its commemorative nature, the enduring popularity of the Haunted Mansion, and its relatively small edition size. The Haunted Mansion itself is a beloved dark ride that opened with Magic Kingdom in October 1971, becoming a cornerstone attraction known for its 999 happy haunts and intricate storytelling.
