Vintage Mickey Mouse Collectables

The word VINTAGE when used for Mickey Mouse Collectables is normally for Mickey Mouse Collectors items and costumes (yes people DO collect older Mickey Mouse Costumes ) made or sold before 1968
To easily identify Vintage Mickey Mouse collectables you really do have to do some research on the various models of Mickey throughout the years.
The earliest Mickey was Steamboat Willie where Mickey is crew on a steamboat.
This shows Mickey with a rather pointed face and smaller eyes.
He usually wears short red pants and white gloves.
Minnie has changed quite a lot over the years
(but they have been very kind to her..)
To see vintage Mickey for yourself please look at our early videos on this website or on Youtube.
You can see that Mickey appears as a Cowboy,Bandleader or Aviator.
Toys (especially Tinplate Toys) of any of these models of Mickey are quite rare and collectable.If you find one DO NOT try to renovate or repaint it as collectors like them in original condition (that includes a bit of rust !)
Several companies now make replicas of Vintage Mickey Mouse Toys and costumes.
If you are buying at an auction or off a website please ensure the word AUTHENTIC is included in the description.
Not all Disney Collectables appear at the same time.
People find them in Attics,Fleamarkets and yard sales and the first place they try to sell them is on eBay.
That is why we have ebay listings on this site.

Disneyland Paris – Best Vintage Mickey Review

Cinderellas Castle Disneyland Paris

Disneyland Paris best Vintage Mickey Review

I visited Disneyland Paris last Week and was delighted to see all the kids who had dressed up for the day !

Most small girls had dressed as either a Princess or as Alice and fairy wands were waved at just about everyone.

Pluto with Fans !

Tweedledum and Tweedledee

Boys mainly had Mickey Sorcerer Hats (and that included many boys of around 18 to 59 by the way !) or as Jack Sparrow from Pirates of the Caribbean.- I did not know there were that many pirates around nowadays...
The Pirates of the Caribbean is a great attraction – unmissable in my opinion.

Pirate Ship Disneyland Paris

Lots of the girls waited in line to meet their favourite Princess (with Cinderella and Prince Charming being the hot favourites)
Almost all were themselves in costume and there was great competition to get a full Princess makeover including dress, shoes and wigs.
It certainly made those girls have a very special day indeed.

Disneyland Paris Girls with King Arthurs Sword

They have seriously extended Disneyland Paris since I last visited and I was pleased to see that (when it started it was looking a little on the Spartan side)
The Pirate area is much bigger and Captain Jack was signing signatures (but he did seem to have a problem deciding which was the working end of a ball point pen !)

There are now lots of restaurants and a huge cowboy BBQ which was one of the most popular eating places.There is even an evening dinner show at Buffalo Bills WIld West show - 6.30 pm and 9.30pm

The most popular attractions were Sleeping Beautys Castle with a GREAT dragon in the dungeon..Followed swiftly by The Haunted Manor (the haunted House ride) ,Idiana Jones and the Temple of Peril (A great action rollercoaster-style ride)
All of the oher popular rides were there plus the upgraded Space Mountain where get get Fired from a gun (Jules Verne Style –well it IS in France !) on a dark rollercoaster ride.

The only thing I did not like was the entrance with dozens of ticket booths with only a few manned – and the fact that only a dual park ticket was shown on the entrance fee boards whereas you can actually buy a ticket for one park alone (although I did get the 2 park ticket I thought this was a bit misleading by Disney and should be changed)
The Fastpass ticket system is in operation so please take advantage of that.
Although there were 15 or so characters roaming around the park to give authographs and happy to be photographed,I found that the main characters are only to be seen at the Disney characters Eat n Greet restaurants

You really do need a two day visit with an overnight stay at Disneyland Paris as there is now SO MUCH to see and do – especially with the Walt Disney Studios Park as well – that is where the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror attractions is sited. .
There is lots of evening entertainment to see as well. I wished I had stayed for the two days.
Instead I stayed in Paris and visited Disney on the RER railway (well signposted and only about 17 Euro return fare).It drops you right at the entrance gates of Disneyland Paris and you do not have an extra journey to the park like in the Parks in America – you just walk right in.

Minnie Mouse Souveniers

How did I rate Disneyland Paris - 5*****
The problem over buying tckets was soon solved but they DO need more tcket booths to be open.
Did I have a good time in Disneyland Paris – you bet !

The early metal Banks are the ones to look for (especially those with a combination lock) Cast Iron and Tinplate banks are also popular with collectors
but later banks are known in Glass,Plastic and Ceramic
There are also Disney Banks with Gumball machines,moveable arm models,
alarm clock models and other imported models.
Banks were of course originally designed to encourage Children to save regularly
and very early ones had to be broken to get to the savings.
A novel idea was the automatic savings banks which were usually made of cast iron and the simple action of placing a coin the the mouth or hand of the character triggered a mechanism which moved an arm or other part of the character and deposited the coin inside the savings bank.
