Blue felt with plastic ears, approx time of first run would be in the early 80's. Everything with Mickey has some value, lol. This one appears to be in fair to good, so I'll give it a ballpark value of $5 to $15, keep it for another 30 and see it skyrocket, Regards, Kerry
Thanks for the quick info . . . my grandson loves Mickey . . . Disney someday soon.
He'll love going I'm sure, you go enjoy your time watching him light up with all the Disney characters
kerry10456 is mistaken. The MM Hats with the white plastic ears were in response to the mod styles introduced in society during the 1970's (not the 80's), which would fit with your description of owning it "for over 30 years." Unfortunately, MM ears do not appreciate much in value unless they represent a certai special occasion... Disneyland's 25th anniversary, for example.
