Snoopy & Woodstock: Best Friends

The little boxed set Snoopy & Woodstock: Best Friends comes with a little rubbery Snoopy figurine, a littler-but-not-littler-to-scale Woodstock figurine, and a little paperback book, about 3 inches square. The book is a strip reprint… well, kind of. The strips reprinted are abridged editions, each brought down to two select panels printed in black-and-white on facing pages.
