It’s the new year, and with a new year comes, of course a new Christmas, waiting just around the corner. Well, not around the near corner, but it’s somewhere around the far corner of the year, so we might as well be working toward it. Will this year bring us …

In response to my earlier post about the two “It’s Only a Game” pamphlets, Schulz Museum curator Benjamin Clark dropped me a line. Did he have information about the where, the when, the how, and the why these were published? No, but he did have one devastating fact to give …

Today, I finally obtained an item that I’d sought for  a decade, something that I had once let slip through my hands when it went for three figures at an auction, but hadn’t seen available since. And now it’s in my hands… but I still can’t tell you what it …
