The Complete Peanuts 1950-1954: Vols. 1 & 2 Gift Box Set - Paperback

The best-selling, award-winning, critically acclaimed series that sparked a renaissance for fans of classic comic strips upon its debut in 2004 is now coming in softcover box sets! This first volume, covering the first two-and-a-quarter years of the strip, features hundreds of strips rarely reprinted before this series. Three major cast membersÃ¢â‚¬â€Schroeder, Lucy, and LinusÃ¢â‚¬â€initially show up as infants and only Ã¢â‚¬Å“growÃ¢â‚¬Â into their final Ã¢â‚¬Å“matureÃ¢â‚¬Â selves as the months go by. Even Snoopy makes his debut as a puppy! Also: Garrison KeillorÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s introduction, a biographical essay by David Michaelis (Schulz and Peanuts) and an in-depth interview with Schulz conducted in 1987. Vol. 2 stars Charlie Brown, Shermy, Patty, Violet, Schroeder, Lucy, baby Linus, Snoopy, and Pigpen. Linus acquires his security blanket and Lucy has forcefully elbowed her way to the center of the action. For readers unfamiliar with the early years of the strip, SnoopyÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s appearances here may come as the biggest surprise: he behaves, for the most part, like a dog! Intro by Walter Cronkite.
