Way, way back in the early and mid-1960s the Peanuts comic strip, by Charles M. Schulz, was at the height of its popularity-as far as daily and Sunday comic strips were concerned.
It saw print in hundreds, if not thousands, of daily newspaper comics pages, both domestically and internationally.
The strip was so popular that a series of oversize Peanuts softbound books containing reprints of the strips were produced. All sold incredibly well and to this day are prized additions to any Peanuts fan’s collection.
The Peanuts strip would go to blossom into a merchandising empire and several TV specials. Peanuts fever swept across the world.
Titan Comics presents Peanuts The Snoopy Collection that includes three facsimile editions of those much sought-after books.
Included in the hard-case slipcover are Snoopy, Come Home, Snoopy and Sunday’s Fun Day, Charlie Brown.
Snoopy, Come Home contains the best daily strips from 1955 to 1962, Snoopy spotlights the best daily strips from 1955 to 1958 and Sunday’s Fun Day, Charlie Brown the best Sunday strips from 1962 to 1965.
All the strips are reproduced in black and white and the facsimile covers recreate the original run’s covers. Also included are three art cards reproducing the three book covers.
I had all of the original run of the 1960’s series. I only wish I still had them.
But, thanks to Titan Comics I can enjoy them once again.
Romans 12:2 (NKJV) “And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”
