Item Description
1-1/8" tall die-cut flat figure of a pie-eyed Mickey. Reverse has a vertical pin, locking clasp, tiny rectangle stamped "935" (not 925) and tiny silversmith's oval hallmark which might be a letter "E" top left followed by a slash and a letter "B" or "H" below. There are several design elements that set this pin apart from the standard hand in the air style. There is a tiny enamel accent where his legs meet the lower edges of his pants, his left elbow forms a point because it is at such a severe angle, his ears not circular, his nose is extra long and most striking is his raised right hand showing three long fingers and a thumb that curves the opposite direction ending in a sharp point. Most enamel is gone from his 1/8" long left arm and there is very tiny surface loss of enamel from his nose, although both areas take close viewing to be noticeable. VF. One known. Rare.
