Pluto - Heard the Best Kept Disney Secret? Disney Vacation Club

This charming Open Edition pin features Pluto, the loyal companion of Mickey Mouse, peeking out from the right side of the design. The pin is part of the 'Heard the Best Kept Disney Secret?' series, which was created to promote the Disney Vacation Club. Pluto’s iconic yellow face and black ears are instantly recognizable, reflecting his debut in the 1930 cartoon 'The Chain Gang.' The blue banner on the pin asks the titular question, 'Heard the best kept Disney Secret?' in bold lettering. Below the banner, a dangling element shaped like an oval features the Disney Vacation Club logo, complete with palm trees and mountain imagery. As an Open Edition pin released at Walt Disney World in 2005, this piece serves as a nostalgic reminder of mid-2000s Disney Vacation Club marketing efforts. Pluto is a beloved character among collectors, and his presence on this pin makes it a fun addition for fans of classic Disney sidekicks. The design utilizes a dangle element to add dimension and movement, which is a popular feature for pin traders. It is a quintessential souvenir for members or those who appreciate the history of Disney’s timeshare program.
