a Schulz variant some got by Providence

BridgeMixCoverProvidence400x649If you’re a Schulz book collector who likes to get not only all the books, but every possible variant (not a path I recommend; that way lies madness!), you might want to get in touch with bridge-playing pals from the Northeast. Yesterday was the last day of the 2014 Fall North American Bridge Championship in Providence, Rhode Island, where over a thousand attendees got, as a gift from the organizers, a copy of this variant edition of Bridge Mix: The Bridge Cartoons of Charles M.

Do I have one for the AAUGH.com Reference Library? Of course. I published this book, after all. If anyone else is doing a bridge event and wants a customized edition, drop me a line! And if you just want a normal-covered copy to give someone as a gift, Amazon can handle you.

Love is Everywhere, Snoopy! is a board book that is supposed to be Charlie Brown explaining love to Snoopy (who is said to have asked, which raises the usual how-does-Snoopy-communicate-to-Charlie-Brown question.) Charlie Brown answers …
