An exceptionally rare and historically significant 1931 First Newspaper Mickey Mouse Premium Picture Card, one of the earliest collectible appearances of Mickey Mouse, the global icon created by Walt Disney.

Issued during the infancy of Mickey Mouse’s meteoric rise in popularity, this premium picture card represents a foundational piece of Disney and animation history. Produced as a newspaper premium, these early character issues were regionally distributed and far scarcer than later mass-produced trading cards, making surviving examples highly desirable among advanced collectors.

Graded PSA 1, the card shows heavy wear consistent with the technical grade, yet remains intact and fully identifiable with strong historical presence. Importantly, PSA’s Population Report confirms just 2 examples at this grade with only 6 graded higher, underscoring the extreme scarcity of this pre-war Disney relic in any condition.

Pieces from Mickey Mouse’s earliest merchandising era rarely surface, particularly encapsulated examples with confirmed population data. As one of the most recognizable and enduring characters in entertainment history, early Mickey Mouse memorabilia continues to see strong collector demand.

A museum-level cornerstone for serious Disney, non-sport, or pre-war premium collectors — and a tangible artifact from the dawn of animated superstardom.
