You would not expect there to be any pins at all

Sure enough we went shopping and I found this little until you got inside and it was huge antique shop.

We they had old everything, from washboards to records (little or big round thing with a little or big hole in the center used to play music)

I thought well there couldn’t be any pins in here, but I like old stuff so I'll look around.

Now these merchants like to stuff there what they feel are their most valued collections right in front so have to see it first. So it was my luck that I like to be nosey and was poking around the dark areas. Well lucky for me because I found some cool pins lots of very old pins and cast member exclusive stuff.

But my prize of the show was these two little beauties one was hidden in the back the other was brought out by the owner after we met and started talking, I told him what I collected then he produced the Epcot picture frame. Talk about holy grails.

Now this location has been sworn to secrecy buy the people that were with me at the time, because they want to explore it some more. (See you guys can relax, and you know who you are too)

But there must be 100’s of shops like this one out there, where these folks have these wonderful little treasures buried without having a clue what they mean to the pin addicts out there. My advice is this, Looking around is not enough I had to ask and the major award prize was brought out. If you see something Disney tell them what your looking for, had I not asked I would not have gotten the frame set.

Very Cool! I checked out antique malls this week too. I did see some pins, but they were WAY over priced. I'll keep checking too.

Congratulations on your find! I know you had a blast.
