Description:

Charles Schulz - Original Comic Strip Art for Peanuts Sunday 6-2-52 (United Features Syndicate, 1952). This wonderful, witty example of early Peanuts art offers a funny send-up of the violence to be found at every local newsstand in America, circa 1950s. Good Ol' Charlie Brown, depressed and discouraged as always, needs a pick-me-up, the kind only a good gore-filled comic book can deliver. In the process of choosing a comic, he manages to lay waste to the entire rack! The incredibly clean line work of Schulz is truly a thing of beauty, and we can envision the lucky high bidder spending hours studying every brushstroke on this masterpiece. Comic art for the "funnypapers" doesn't get any better than this! The art has been professionally double-matted and framed to a size of 32" x 24.5", with an image area of 23" x 15.5". The art is in excellent condition.

Schulz, Charles: Schulz, Charles is the creator of Peanuts, an renowned American comic strip. He served in the army during World War II, later becoming an art school instructor and then a free-lance cartoonist for the St. Paul Pioneer Press and the Saturday Evening Post. In 1950, he sold the Peanuts strip to United Features, and it became the most widely-read comic in history, appearing worldwide in over 2,000 newspapers.. American cartoonist, illustrator, and author, 1922-2000
