Charles Schulz - Peanuts Daily Comic Strip Original Art, dated 4-27-54 (United Feature Syndicate, 1954). When Snoopy hitched a free ride in Schroeder's toy dump truck, the bold beagle paid for his effrontery -- with a swift dumping! Charles Schulz was the dominant comic artist of his time, a front-runner in the comic strip for over forty years, nearly half of the field's lifespan. He once said, "I'm not interested in simply doing gags, I'm interested in doing a strip that says something and makes some comment on the important things of life." This daily is printed on page 207 of Fantagraphics Books The Complete Peanuts 1953 to 1954. The image area of this strip is 27" x 5". Aside from a fold between panels two and three, and a few small stains in panel three, the condition of the art is Excellent.
