British recycling

The folks at Ravette are planning more recycled volumes for later this year. August brings two more of the Snoopy 2-in-1 collections, which each reprint two of the Snoopy Stars/Snoopy Features volumes. However, I don’t yet know which titles these two reprint.

They’re also offering up a UK edition of the collection of 1996 strips The World According to Lucy.

More exciting is their September line of Peanuts gift books, which are reprints of some of the fine old original Determined Production titles (and, judging by the page counts, these are reprints of the original versions rather than the later expanded-with-new-but-lesser-art versions):

I will be interested to see if they take their source from the American versions, or if they preserve the alterations from the previous UK editions, like the one you can see in the Museum of Odd Peanuts Books.
