More Plastino Peanuts

It’s known that cartoonist Al Plastino was once hired to produce some Peanuts strips to be kept on file, even if there was some disagreement between Plastino’s recollection and other reasoning as to when this took place.

Go over to the Amazon page for the book, click on the book cover to get into Amazon’s Look Inside feature, and scroll down to pages 57 and 58.
