Camp Peanuts cover and last minute gifts

We have a first look at the cover of It’s Off to Camp, Charlie Brown. It won’t actually be available until May, but hey, that’s what makes it a first look. It is nice to see a cover that isn’t just a blue sky fading down to green grass for once; we’ve been seeing far too many of those lately.

And hey, posting this gives me the excuse to note that there’s just a few hours left to order things and have them delivered Friday (via 1-Day Accelerated Delivery, which has a few odd limitations). This option costs a bit more, of course, and it isn’t available for everything. Still, if you suddenly remembered someone who could use the first two volumes of The Complete Peanuts or the classic Peanuts animated holiday specials, you have about four hours after I post this message to order them and stop your worrying… and for some reason about three more hours beyond that for certain items like the latest volume of Complete Peanuts or the second boxed set.

But hey, it’s never too lateto give people love, understanding, and forgiveness (that last being a gift that can go to those least expecting it!) Kindness is a gift that knows no season.

On the four panel status

For more than the first three decades of Peanuts, the daily strip was always four panels… well, no, that’s not quite 100% true, as I think of the August 31, 1954 daily strip of Patty jumping rope, but even that had panel breaks at the quarter, half, and three-quarter marks …

Upcoming releases
Gilded Age Peanuts

There are many products generated as Peanuts “collectibles”. There have even been some special editions of books that would qualify, such as those leatherbound Easton Press editions. Still, I think the upcoming board book edition of It’s the Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown is pushing the line a bit. The publisher …
