My first Disney Souvenir is what other than the classic black mickey mouse ears which are still in my room. My favorite souvenir's would have to be my pins.
The first Disney souvenier I can remember was the platic orange sippie cup I brought home & cherished back in the late 70's...

The first thing I remember buying in WDW is a Copper stuffed animal from the Emporium. I was 6, and a huge fan of Fox & the Hound. I remember begging my mother for both Copper and Tod, but two stuffed animals weren't in her budget. Luckily, she ordered one over the phone when we got home, and had it sent to me for my birthday. I was so happy. It's been 31 years since then, and Copper & Tod are now sitting happily together in my guest room.
I'm sure I had many souvenirs before this...but the first one I can remember was getting one of the umbrellas with the hand painted name on them. I still have mine 25+ years later...I saw a girl with one on my last trip and told her that I still have mine.
I also remember that I really wanted my mom and dad to buy me those Minnie Mouse dresses....no luck...as soon as my daughter is able to fit in that XS size we are getting it! Goodbye $50...hello finally being able to get the dress!! Lol!!!
If you found that you item was very valuable and you still had it --- would you sell it? I feel like I would have a hard time parting with anything I got in Disney!
