Peanuts are Golden… Books

The Golden Books line is putting out three Peanuts volumes in September. Two of them are reprints of (or at least have the same title as) Little Golden Books issued in the 1980s: Let’s Fly a Kite, Charlie Brown  and Where’s Woodstock. The new title, Meet the Peanuts Gang, will have to be treated carefully by collectors and book dealers alike, because another book with that title is being issued in May. (The hardcore collector may also know of a 1960s British strip collection by that title as well.)
