I picked up today something that I wasn’t sure would ever exist. The Peanuts 4-Movie Collection gathers all four of the classically animated Peanuts theatrical films into one handy, cheap set (just under $20 at the moment). The reason that this seemed unlikely is that the four films are owned by two …
AAUGH 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!)

Well, I was forecasting a deluge of Peanuts books in the fall, but I should have looked at my calendar more closely – these two shipments are arriving tomorrow, which is still the last day of summer. Having said that, it overcounts things a tad. Seems I was relying on …
Now shipping are two Halloween-themed storybooks: You Got a Rock, Charlie Brown and the new book adaptation of It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown.
