Dale Folding Fan

This charming pin features Dale, one-half of the iconic mischievous chipmunk duo, partially hidden behind a vibrant yellow folding fan. The fan design is decorated with stylized blue cloud motifs, reflecting a traditional aesthetic often seen in cultural celebration pin releases. Dale is instantly recognizable by his signature red nose and buck teeth, a look he has maintained since his debut in the 1943 short 'Private Pluto.' This piece is part of the Character Folding Fans Mystery Set released in 2024 at both Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World. As an Open Edition pin, it offers a great entry point for collectors who enjoy building character-specific collections or those who appreciate the unique fan-shaped artistic motif. The pin features a classic mickey-waffle backstamp, which is the standard for modern Disney Parks pins. While Chip 'n' Dale are beloved for their comedic antics and frequent appearances in park entertainment, their inclusion in mystery sets often leads to high trading activity among fans. Collectors value these mystery set pieces for their cohesive design theme and the ability to collect the entire set of characters. Whether you are a fan of classic animation shorts or simply love the design, this Dale pin is a delightful addition to any collection.
