Item Description
In Disney Pin collecting circles just the mention of the name Gomes instantly brings reverent silence reserved only for those who are true legends in their craft and Elisabete Gomes is just that for Disney Pins. She has arguably created the best series of pins ever released by Disney. A renowned creator of fine ceramic collectibles, Gomes has been working in collaboration w/Disney since the Fall of 1993 and has worked w/many legendary Disney animators including Ward Kimball, Marc Davis, Ollie Johnston and Frank Thomas. Offered here is PinPics #32272, a 2.5" dia. enameled metal pin graded and encapsulated by PinPics depicting Alice from Disney's 1951 animated film "Alice In Wonderland" amongst field of daisies. PinPics graded at 9.4 (NM), none graded higher. This is the highest grade known of this pin, a near flawless copy of a stunning work of art by Gomes. Her series of pins were highly desired from the day they were first released and continue to be some of the most difficult to find pins year after year. If there was one series worthy of distinction, this would be it. Released in 2004 as part of a limited edition of just 100.
