Tinker Bell - Morning (Sun and Leaves)

This charming Tinker Bell pin is part of the popular Cast Lanyard Series III collection, specifically the 'Tinker Bell Times of the Day' sub-series released at the Disneyland Resort in 2005. The design features Tinker Bell in a classic pose, framed within a circular stained-glass style border that evokes a serene morning scene with a bright yellow sun and lush green leaves. Tinker Bell, the beloved fairy first introduced in the 1953 animated classic 'Peter Pan,' remains one of Disney's most iconic and highly collected characters. As an Open Edition pin, it was originally distributed as a Cast Member lanyard trade pin, making it a staple for traders walking the parks. The pin includes a subtle Mickey icon emblem, which serves as a hallmark for authentic Cast Member lanyard pins from that era. Collectors prize this series for its cohesive art style and the nostalgic depiction of the character throughout different times of the day. Because it was an Open Edition release meant for trading, finding one in excellent condition has become increasingly difficult over the years. Its circular shape and vibrant enamel work make it an eye-catching addition to any fairy-themed collection or Disneyland Resort memorabilia display.
