Here is a look at the third Wendy’s book (in order of finding, not in the order of them being issued), courtesy of AAUGH Blog reader Bill: It is copyright 2011, and it does credit Peanuts ownership to United Feature Syndicate. The UFS credit and the simpler bag design – …

The helpful Joanne has sent along scans of The World Famous Snoopy, and yes indeed, the back cover does still carry the old copyright information. The book does, however, have a 2011 copyright date, so it cannot be too old; this isn’t some volume left over from that month last …

Upon seeing my post yesterday about a possible kids board book at the Wendy’s fast food chain, AAUGH Blog reader Joanne dropped me a note to let me know that indeed, Wendy’s had a board book. She’d gotten one a couple weeks back, entitled World Famous Snoopy, showcasing Snoopy in …
