Buena Vista Street

From Hidden Mickey Wiki

Buena Vista Street is a themed land at Disney California Adventure amusement park at the Disneyland Resort. Though named for the real-life Burbank thoroughfare that the Walt Disney Studios sits on, the central plaza represents Los Angeles in the 1920s, when Walt Disney first arrived there. One of the main features is a small-scale replica of the Hyperion Bridge, which was being constructed when Disney stayed in Atwater Village. The replica functions as a working bridge for the resort's monorail system. This land is similar to the layout and style of Main Street USA at Disneyland, Disney California Adventure's sister park. It includes dining, shopping, parades, and entertainment. The Red Car Trolley, a recreation of Pacific Electric's iconic Red Car electric trolleys, transports guests through this area, from the park's entry to Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood Land.

Elias & Co.

Hidden Mickey
Found
If you work your way to the grand room, look up at the mannequins dressed in the 1920's attire. They are posed on a railed balcony. The railing design incorporates the Mickey Mouse head.
CONFIRMED: It's not a "classic Mickey" in the sense that the head is a little odd. But everything else about it is great.

Hidden Mickey
Found
The 1930's era locks in the Katz & Sons display window seem to have been chosen for their classic Mickey shapes.
CONFIRMED: The Mickey locks are still there, but the display has changed a little bit. Instead of a bookshelf, they're in a box on the floor. It's the same "Hidden Mickey", but just arranged differently.

Unknown The vintage Neumade Griswold film splicer topping this sales display features a classic Hidden Mickey shape.
UPDATE: I wasn't able to find this device in the sales area. The Imagineers might have changed this.
REPORTED: anon 18 NOV 24
UPDATE: Pianoman 4 MAR 25
Unknown The upper shelves in the store have this device on display. Not sure what it is, but it's got a Mickey face on it. It's similar to the "film splicer Mickey" above, but slightly different. For now, this is a separate Mickey.
REPORTED: Pianoman 4 MAR 25
Unknown Towards the back of the store, there's an area where they sell mugs, and on the shelf above is this golden mug with Mickey jewels. It reminds me of Jingles the Horse in Fantasyland.

Unknown This location hides one of the toughest Hidden Mickeys to find. Search through the white terrazzo floor and you'll find Mickey there but he is very tiny. Good luck!
