Pin #61: Hawaiian Islands

I bought this pin during my only trip to Hawaii in 1998.  There's nothing super special about this pin, but it's a reminder of my trip.  I bought it because I was on the Hawaiian Islands and this seemed like an appropriate pin.

Pin #60: Bambi and Flower

This is yet another pin from my Walt Disney Classics Collection series that has been featured two other times in this blog.  This particular pin is of Bambi and Flower.  It's a cute pin.  I believe this is the only representation of Bambi on my board, so it's noteworthy in that aspect also.

Pin #59: Nicholas Nickelby House

I have no idea where I got this pin or who gave it to me.  In fact, I wasn't even really sure what it was.  On the back, though, it says Nicholas Nickelby, and states that it is the first in a series.  I'm not sure what series, and I don't think I have any others from the series, but I have this one.

Pin #58: Izzy

This is Izzy, the mascot for the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta.  Most people don't remember mascots from the Olympics, probably because they are mostly forgettable.  But I have a few forever immortalized on my pin boards.  Including, Izzy.  He really was a stupid mascot.

Pin #57: 1996 Olympics Motorola Cell Phone

This is another pin from my 1996 Olympics collection.  I told you I had a lot of them.  This particular one showcases Motorola's sponsorship and is, what I've always thought, a cell phone.  After all, that's what cell phones looked like in 1996.  Although, looking at it now, it looks more like a walkie talkie.  I always thought it was a cool pin, but it has definitely lost some of its luster over the years.  I do like the torch logo in the middle, though.

Pin #56: Bugs Bunny Stamp

This is kind of a cool looking pin.  It's an image of a Bugs Bunny commemorative stamp.  Clearly it is from many years ago, as the price of stamps has risen dramatically from 32 cents.  I believe my aunt gave me this pin along with a few others that have already been featured.

Pin #55: Wonderful World of Disney

Another pin from the Magical Musical Moments series released by the Disney Store in 2002.  This is actually the first pin the series.  It's a 1960s style TV showing the opening from the Wonderful World of Disney with Tinkerbell.  I absolutely loved the look of this pin when I first saw it which is why I had to buy it.  I'm a sucker for anything retro, so the old TV sold this for me.
