German love
The latest addition to the AAUGH.com reference library is Liebe ist ein Buch mit sieben Siegeln, which is the 1967 German translation of the pictures-and-aphorism book Love is Walking Hand in Hand. Actually, “translation” is taking it too far. My German is pretty bad, but even I noticed that the …
An early Charlie Brown Christmas celebration
When we talk about A Charlie Brown Christmas, we certainly recognize that after running for 40 years, it’s now considered a classic. However, there’s a thing about Christmas “classics”; they are often not recognized for their greatness when they first arise. There is a lot of history showing how Christmas …
Bleah!
You can see here my new favorite Peanuts book title, the German book BLEAH! We don’t have a copy in the AAUGH.com reference library yet, alas. What we have added to the AAUGH.com reference library is the 1958 edition of Txweco, the yearbook of Texas Wesleyan College. Now, many student …
Schulz bio pushed back, DVDs pushed forward
Tonight is this year’s U.S. airing of A Charlie Brown Christmas on ABC. That makes it a good day to watch TV, of course, but it also makes it a good day for me to talk about some upcoming releases: two more animated Peanuts DVDs. Now, the movies are finally …
Nat Completes a Set
I’m doing a little happy dance over here, because I finally own every Peanuts book ever published… in Welsh. Of course, the fact that there are only 2 made it easier, but these books aren’t easy to find. I’ve had Ffyrnigrwydd Snwpi for a while now, but only just got …
The other Complete Peanuts set, and more
So you want the complete run of Peanuts strips in 25 volumes, but you don’t want to wait another decade to get the complete set? And you want to pay only about $60 plus shipping for the whole set? Well, how’s your Chinese? Because that’s the language for this set …

The second boxed set of The Complete Peanuts is now available for pre-order. This set has the already-released volume 3 and the upcoming volume 4 both in a slipcase at a discount price. In fact, if you order the boxed set now, it’s a mere $32.97… only about $4 more …
Peanuts work for the government again
The AAUGH.com library has just been bestowed with a copy of The American Economic System… and your part in it, a 20-page 8.5″ x 11″ pamphlet that was put out in 1975. It was a joint production of The Advertising Council (the private non-profit that puts together most of the …
It’s better than Architects Against Snoopy
The laest addition to the AAUGH.com reference library (not open to the public, sorry) is Architects for Snoopy, which is a catalog from a museum exhibition at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts thirteen years ago. The MMoFA basically took over the exhibit that had displayed in a Paris museum …
The WHAT according to Peanuts?
You’ve heard of The Gospel According to Peanuts, and if you paid close attention to the AAUGH.com newsletter, you’ve heard of The Effective Executive According To Peanuts. But the odds are pretty darned good you’ve never heard of The GMP’s According to Peanuts; I know I hadn’t heard of it …
