Lot 7
Schulz, Charles M (1922-2000). Most widely syndicated cartoonist, best known for the lovable "Peanuts" strip. Based on characters in his own life, Schulz sketched and wrote each cartoon which ran in newspapers worldwide for over 50 years. The popular characters -- Snoopy, Lucy, Linus, and Charlie Brown -- have permeated popular culture and coined such phrases as "good grief" and "security blanket".
A unique piece of Peanuts memorabilia! Here, Charles Schultz inscribes a Time Magazine cover "Best wishes -- Charles Schulz" and also "signs" for Charlie Brown, Linus, Lucy, Schroeder and Snoopy (compete with a paw print over his name). Matted to 11 x 14". The complete magazine, sans cover, accompanies this lot. Cover retains original mailing label, otherwise, fine condition.
The original owner of this April 9, 1965 Time cover asked Schulz to have Charlie Brown, Lucy, Snoopy, Linus and Schroeder sign the magazine and thus we are able to offer the fabulous result-- Charles Schulz renders his characters' signatures! How many collectors have Lucy's autograph? Charlie Brown's?
Estimated Value $350-UP.
