Critter Country - Brer Rabbit

This charming pin features Brer Rabbit, the iconic protagonist of Disney’s 1946 film, Song of the South, set against the backdrop of the Critter Country land at Disneyland Resort. Released in 2002 as part of the Characters and Logos Land Series, this Open Edition pin serves as a nostalgic tribute to a unique area of the park. Critter Country, originally known as Bear Country when it opened in 1972, was rebranded in 1988 to house the legendary Splash Mountain attraction. Brer Rabbit is famously known for his cleverness and his ability to outsmart Brer Fox and Brer Bear, themes that have made him a classic figure in Disney lore. As an Open Edition pin, it was designed to be accessible to guests visiting the park during the early 2000s, though it has since become a piece of park history. The pin captures the whimsical spirit of the Critter Country aesthetic, which emphasizes rustic charm and woodland adventure. Collectors value this piece for its specific connection to a beloved, albeit evolving, section of Disneyland Resort. The design features clean lines and a classic enamel finish that was standard for releases during this era of pin trading. While it is an Open Edition release, the thematic focus on a specific land makes it a staple for collectors who focus on Disneyland Resort attraction and land-based memorabilia.
