2001 Disneyland "Snow White Woodland Friends " Pin Set

Disneyland Resort has run many "Gift With Purchase" pin promotions over the years, and back in the later half of 2001, it was Snow White's turn. For every purchase of $15 or more on pins, park guests would receive a special GWP Snow White pin. A new one would be given out on the first Sunday of every month from July to December.

The Snow White collection consisted of six pins in all and included the princess and five forest animals. The set also came with an illustrated Dwarf's Cottage background card that complimented the series and could be used to displayed the pins.

The pins themselves are quite petite. Snow White's the largest at approximately 1 3/8" in height. The Bluebird and Chipmunk are the smallest measuring just over a 1/2" at their longest stretch. Each is back-stamped with "© DISNEY CHINA".

I visited the park in late December 2001 and was able to trade for the pins--all of which could be found on cast members' lanyards. The pins were open edition but are now long retired.

    I really like the small size of these pins!

    They're so small that it was even difficult to get a decent size scan of them :)

    They are terribly cute. It is impressive how well Snow White and the woodland critters translated into small pins.

    Yes they did quite well with the production of this set, Sheryl...better than some other tiny pins I've seen.
