Hey howdy hey! Welcome to another curated list of vintage Disney goods from yours truly. Since Mother’s Day is fast-approaching, I thought I’d put together a little selection of gift ideas for the mother(s) in your life — with ample shipping time in-between! Go beyond flowers and chocolates by giving Mom a gift that captures the magic of cherished memories: vintage Disney collectibles. Whether visited Walt Disney World with her own parents, hummed along to Winnie the Pooh, or watched Mickey Mouse Club reruns, Disney memorabilia can strike an emotional chord. As we know, Disney is timeless. A well-chosen vintage Disney item can be a connection to warm, joyful memories. Without further ado, let’s dive into this week’s vintage goodies!

First up, you can’t go wrong with a classic Mickey ear hat. This Walt Disney World pair of ears from the 1970s feature a more traditional mouse shape you won’t find in the gift shops today. And, bonus, it’s already embroidered with “Mom” along the back.
Available HERE | $22.28
Maybe a brooch or pin is more her speed? These are little touches to bring Disney into your everyday outfit, or tag onto a purse. These three were made especially for moms.
Mickey available HERE | $55 | Pooh available HERE | $12.95
This 3-park pin predates Disney Pin Trading, and is actually one of my very first pins I ever acquired! Well, mine has my name on it, but this one is great for any Mom out there. Look at the little Earffel Tower!
Available HERE | $10.50
Now we’re taking it back to TWO parks… See if mom remembers visiting Disney World in the early 80s, when only Magic Kingdom and EPCOT were found on official park merch! The colors on this one are so fun, featuring animated depictions of Spaceship Earth at golden hour and Cinderella Castle in her ol’ blue and white color scheme.
Available HERE | $7.99
Last up for today is this precious plushie pairing: Kanga & Roo, made by GUND in 1964. I cannot get over their sweet faces — especially little Roo’s kangaroo-in-the-headlights look.
Available HERE | $50
I hope you enjoyed this week’s selection of vintage Disney merch made for Moms! Let me know if you’d like to see any specific character or theme featured and I’ll include them in my weekly searches. Happy hunting!
