Have yourself a book-form Charlie Brown Christmas!

walmartCBCAAUGH Blog fan Bill just alerted me to this item you see pictured, a  Walmart Exclusive 50th anniversary set of Charlie Brown Christmas. It’s got two CDs,  four postcards (not just postcards, collectible postcards, we are told. They have not been collection-proofed! And looking at them, very non-Christmassy!)

And there’s still time to order and have it at your home by Christmas. (But me, I went cheap on the shipping, so don’t expect me to comment on this until the between-Christmasses period.)
