This collectible pin, released in 2009, features a sleek black silhouette of Owl, the self-appointed scholar of the Hundred Acre Wood, set against a clean white background. A distinctive small silver Mickey icon is subtly incorporated into the design, marking it as part of the popular Hidden Mickey series. Owl is a beloved character originating from A.A. Milne's classic books, 'Winnie-the-Pooh' (1926) and 'The House at Pooh Corner' (1928), and unlike many of his companions, he was based on a real animal rather than a stuffed toy, giving him a unique visual presence. Disney first brought Owl to animated life in the 1966 short, 'Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree'. This particular pin belongs to the 2009 Disneyland Resort (DLR) Hidden Mickey – Winnie the Pooh Silhouettes series, which consists of seven pins in total. Hidden Mickey pins are highly sought after by collectors because they are exclusively released as Cast Lanyard pins, meaning they are not sold in stores but are acquired through trading with Disney Cast Members. The Owl Silhouette pin is specifically identified as pin #5 out of 7 in this desirable set.
This pin is considered highly collectible due to its origin as a Hidden Mickey Cast Lanyard pin, meaning it was not available for direct purchase by guests but had to be traded for with a Cast Member, increasing its rarity and desirability. Being part of the 2009 Winnie the Pooh Silhouettes set, a 7-pin series, makes it particularly attractive to collectors aiming to complete the entire collection. Despite being an Open Edition (OE) within the Hidden Mickey context, its exclusive distribution method makes it harder to find than standard Open Edition pins. The clean silhouette design and the popularity of the Winnie the Pooh franchise further contribute to its appeal.
The character of Owl first appeared in A.A. Milne's beloved children's books, 'Winnie-the-Pooh' in 1926 and 'The House at Pooh Corner' in 1928. Disney introduced Owl to animation in the 1966 short film, 'Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree,' which marked the beginning of Disney's enduring Winnie the Pooh franchise. The iconic feature film, 'The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh,' combining several shorts, was then released in 1977. This 2009 pin celebrates Owl's long-standing presence in the Hundred Acre Wood and Disney's animation history.
