What are some of the most limited pins in your collection?

At my last job, many years ago, we hired a middle manager. She complimented me on my Mickey bag, I showed her my D23 key, etc... Turns out she JUST left Disney to work at my company. She was specifically doing management logistics in the pins department.

The next day, she handed me a box full of loose pins. I gladly accepted but upon getting home, noticed that every one was a LE AP. I tried to return them, but she wouldn't take them back! Among them, these Up pins have been my favorite. The jumbo pin's AP stamp is pretty obvious, but you've gotta squint to see the others. Apparently they are DIsney Store LE250s.

What's fun is I saw her helping run the line at MOG at D23 maybe 4 years ago (the last time I did the expo). Apparently she's at PinUSA now, where they welcomed her with open arms immediately after she left our company!

I don’t think I would ever be able to chose just one. Some of my favorites are the LE 50 frame of the Queen of Hearts. PinPics# 18683 and the LE25 Frame of Mickey’s Toon Town Pinpics # 38604

But I also love all my Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnston pins and my Elisabeth Gomes pins. They older Disney Auctions and Disney Shopping pins had incredible artwork that has been lost through time. You just don’t see that in today’s pins.
