Food and Wine 2018 Mystery Set - Donald Duck

This charming pin features Donald Duck, the iconic short-tempered yet lovable character who first appeared in 'The Wise Little Hen' (1934), celebrating the Epcot International Food and Wine Festival at Walt Disney World. As part of the 2018 Food and Wine Mystery Set, Donald is depicted wearing a traditional Norwegian cap and scarf while interacting with a stylized black stave church, a prominent architectural symbol of Norway. The background features the Norwegian flag, and the base of the pin serves as a directional sign pointing toward 'NORWAY' with a distance of 4,614 miles, referencing the distance from Epcot to the actual country. This Limited Release pin was designed for the popular annual festival, which draws thousands of collectors to the park each year. Donald Duck remains one of the most beloved Disney characters, and his appearance in travel-themed merchandise is consistently popular among collectors. The pin is a Pin on Pin, adding a dimensional layer that enhances the detail of the stave church and Donald. Its inclusion in a mystery set format often makes individual characters like Donald highly sought after by those attempting to complete the full collection. Collectors appreciate this piece for its vibrant enamel work, thematic connection to the World Showcase, and its representation of a specific Epcot festival year.
