Haunted Mansion 50th Anniversary Gus Oval Plaque Pin

This elegant pin celebrates the 50th Anniversary of the Haunted Mansion attraction, featuring the iconic Hitchhiking Ghost known as Gus. Released in 2019, this pin is part of the Haunted Mansion 50th Oval Plaque Pins series, which captures the spooky yet sophisticated aesthetic of the attraction. The design showcases a detailed, antique-style bronze-toned frame adorned with sculpted roses and ornate scrollwork, surrounding a black oval center. Centered within this frame is a cream-colored silhouette of Gus, one of the three mischievous spirits who famously follow guests home after they exit the attraction. Gus, often identified by his signature bowler hat and diminutive stature, has become a fan-favorite character among Disney enthusiasts since the attraction first opened in 1969. As a Limited Edition 2000 release, this pin was made available at both Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World, marking a significant milestone in the history of the legendary ride. The contrast between the metallic bronze finish and the stark black and white portrait gives the piece a classic, gothic look that resonates with collectors who appreciate the darker, more thematic side of Disney pin artistry. Its inclusion in a milestone anniversary series makes it a highly sought-after item for those building comprehensive Haunted Mansion collections.
