I obtained a bunch of vintage pins but I cannot find any info at all other than that this exists. When researching I have found the red version that’s le 1000, but nothing on this one.

AP 1 of 50, Disneyana Fun Fair 200 a year to remember. Anyone here a total guru that can estimate the value? I love it so much and would love to know more.


I can’t post pics because I’m new. So yeah. It’s blue. And AP lol

Have you tried uploading from another platform? I use tapatalk. Trying to remember, but I think new members can upload photos.

The other way is the picture icon in the menu above. It can be hit or miss for me also. Tapatalk is more reliable for uploading photos.

Anyway, photos would really help.
 
So the Disneyana Fun Fair pin events were a monthly fan event capitalizing on the popularity of pin trading. Similar to the many trading events that exist today (Kraken, Central Florida Pin Traders, etc). As these were fan events these pins are not official Disney pins, but Fantasy. Many of the pins were designed by retired Disney Imagineers (Sam McKim, Floyd Norman, etc.) , so if someone was a particular fan of that Imagineer they may have slightly more interest. However, as fan created pins they don't really have much value within the greater pin community. A lot of the people who attended these shows have either moved on from pins, or are no longer with us, and younger, newer collectors have developed their own communities. Back in the day, there were several groups that would host events for Disneyana fans to gather and host panels from former Imagineers. Disneyana Fun Fair, Mouse Club, NFFC (still exists under the name Disneyana Fan Club).

This is an old thread from the DISboards that talks about these pins a little

Disneyana Fun Fair

I had an opportunity recently to trade for some pins that the owner said came from the Disneyana Fun Fair. What exactly are these pins? Thanks.

And a link to a search on Pinpics for more of these pins

Yes!! Thank you! This is the info I was looking for. Thank you so much. I will definitely be keeping it, even if it’s not a popular thing. I think it’s a cool part of Disney history! Thanks
