Mouse Ears Hats

This article examines all the different Mouse ears hats that can now be found at Disney parks.

The popular souvenirs once were decorated only with a yellow embroidered name across the back. Today, they come in all sorts of forms, themes, dimensions, materials and limited editions. And more are on the way. There is enough variety that the ears could move from vacation remembrance to collectible.
 It's interesting that, until several years ago, we only could get the standard, black Mouse ears hat, with every limited variation. From what I've seen, it was until the 50th anniversary of Disneyland, when they had the gold Mouse ears hat that sold like hot cakes, that Disney discovered that these things can sell as well as anything else. From that point onwards, I've started seeing different variety of Mouse ears hat, often for many different occasions and events.

They probably saw people like me coming and realized the cash cow that it could be! Lol.
