Help me find this Snoopy golf tournament program
Hey, if anyone knows anyone who has the program for the 1989 AT&T National Pro-Am Golf Tournament pictured here, please get them in touch with me. I could use their help on a legit project. (I don’t need any other volumes, just this one.)
Apparently, I’m the Man, and not in a Stan-the-Man way
“I live my life thinking I’m the rebel, fighting against the forces that be, Then one day I see the real rebel in the distance, and the one she’s rebelling is me” –“The Man”, by Strange Not Dead, off the album Gotta Dammerung So I get to thinking about that odd …
Good Grief, Another Museum Catalog
London’s Somerset House is hosting a Peanuts exhibition through March 3, with both Schulz material and Peanuts-inspired contributions from 20 artists… and a couple of you fine AAUGH Blog readers pointed me toward their exhibition catalog (thank you, Kathleen & Douglas!)

Howl now, Brown crowd
Someone asked me about the announced-but-not-yet-solicited literary look at Peanuts, The Peanuts Papers: Charlie Brown, Snoopy and the Gang, and the Meaning of Life, which I had previously discussed.

AAUGH: The First Peanuts Strip
Peanuts launched with just four panels, and the AAUGH Blogger, Peanuts specialist Nat Gertler, spends fourteen minutes poring over those panels. Oh, well, including asides about popcorn. To follow along, you can see the strip on the GoComics site. Alas, that version is colorized, so it’s not the pure experience. …
About that Snoople graphic
I’ve gotten a couple of queries about the graphic that accompanied the other’s day blog entry about Apple’s upcoming Peanuts TV projects. To stave off any further questions, no, this is not an official graphic. It’s just something that I goofed together to suggest the intersection between those two things. …
