Here, for example, is the announcement of the feature&#8217;s debut in the <em>Minneapolis Sunday Tribune<\/em> on January 12, 1958, a short ways in the run. It&#8217;s not clear whether the paper had just started subscribing to it, or had been subscribing but not running it in the previous weeks. (Papers sometimes did that to keep a strip out of the hands of the competition, or to be ready when they dropped another strip.) This was an above-the-fold ad on what would&#8217;ve been the outer wrap of the Sunday paper, so it was not a minor thing. This comics section also had Peanuts on the back page, although they only ran the two-tier version of the Sunday rather than the full three tiers.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/ItsOnlyAGameDebut.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-5541\" src=\"http:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/ItsOnlyAGameDebut-300x212.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"212\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/ItsOnlyAGameDebut-300x212.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/ItsOnlyAGameDebut-768x543.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/ItsOnlyAGameDebut.jpeg 976w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While Schulz&#8217;s collaborator on It&#8217;s Only a Game, Jim Sasseville, would say that the strip was in the same number of papers at the end as when it launched, that doesn&#8217;t mean that no papers added it along the way.
