Front Description
This small pin shows the head of the brave and beautiful Miss Bianca (from The Rescuers). It is part of the same set as ##2431 (Evinrude), 4347 (Orville), 4348 (Bernard, full body), 4350 (Miss Bianca, full body), 21895 (Rufus), and 24705 (Bernard's head, looking frightened). I got a set of these RescuerS pins in the late 1980s or early 1990s from a reputable dealer who has been collecting, trading, and selling Disney (and other) pins for at least 15 years, but there is one thing very curious about these pins: On all of the pins of this set that I have seen, it looks like the "tack" was added on after the rest of the pin was made (as if the items were originally a different piece of Disney jewelry and then converted into a pin); in some case, the back of the pin is one color, and the tack is another. All of the pieces from this set that I have seen have proper Disney backstamps (© Walt Disney Productions), and are of nice quality, which causes me to believe that they are real Disney jewelry and not bootlegs. It is my best guess that the items were made into pins at the factory that originally manufactured them as there are no signs that any of the pins were altered other than by the addition of a tack (for example, there is no indication that I could see that someone cut off a loop that could have made the pins into charms that could have been added to a chain or bracelet).
