Item Description
This very thin embossed tin figure of Mickey in classic pose with hands on hips stands 1-3/16" tall. This is not the typical early 1930s design, as on this, one hand has five fingers, and the other has four, and his snout with long nose has a slightly different shape to it than the typical European stickpin from the early 1930s. Tiny traces of silver luster remain on his ears and shoes. The die-cut is mounted on thin 1-3/8" vertical stickpin and we suspect but cannot document that the piece is German in origin. Rare.
