Getting two of the 3 pins in my signature soon!
I'm pretty excited -- I'm getting 2 of the 3 pins in my signature. I want to gush over them a little bit and once they come in the mail I will follow up with a picture...
Pin 17637: Disney Catalog - Storybook Series #5 (Our Friend the Atom) Hinged
In the 50s, Disney made a movie and accompanying book about all the good things atomic energy could do for society. I happened to write a paper about atomic propaganda in high school, which featured this book heavily. And this pin is a mini-version of that book. I'm getting this in a trade from Bricklayer -- thanks Jon!
Pin 22167: Disney Catalogue - Pooh Around the World (Germany)
I figured this pin would be tough to find because 1) it has very few people trading on PinPics and 2) it was originally a GWP with a beanie baby! I figured the number of people who bought the beanie probably did not pay much attention to the pin. Well, I check in with That Auction Site every couple of days to see if any of my HTFs are up there -- and it was! Only $15 with shipping, which for a pin I thought I'd never find, I'm happy to shell out for.
