Minor surface grime/dust (cleanable); faint scuffing on the enamel surface; the lanyard it is currently attached to is not original and is in poor condition, adding no value.

Selling Tips
Remove the pin from the dirty lanyard before photographing. Use the keyword 'Hidden Mickey' or 'Chullu' in the title. Ship in a bubble mailer to prevent the pin post from bending. Best listed during the summer travel season.
