The first Charles M. Schulz's Peanuts cartoon ran sixty years ago; October 2nd, 1950, to be exact. Since then, Peanuts fans have been savoring every tidbit of Charlie Brown and Lucy wisdom and memorabilia. The truly unique collection features high-quality reproductions of Peanuts items that even diehard aficionados have never seen: sketches, comics, and photographs; removable features including film cells, stickers, and artwork suitable for framing. For Peanuts fans, this oversized, slip-cased hardcover is the gift of the season.
I just reviewed The Peanuts Collection by Nat Gertler. As much as I enjoyed looking through this book I'm not a die hard fan and my kids would ruin this fantastic book so I'd like to get it into the hands of a Charlie Brown fanatic. This book is in like new condition. I handled it very carefully as I read through it to review it.
Giveaway details:
Open to those with a US mailing address (sorry this book is big and heavy so I'm only willing to pay to ship it to the US).

I would love to win this because Peanuts is probably the first comic strip I loved regularly as a child. I even remember writing a college report on Peanuts for some class. And Snoopy is the only character I can draw!

I would love to win this because I have been a peanuts fan my whole life. The first two I remember owning (and we have pictures that go back even farther) is a Snoopy wearing a jean jacket and shoes, that had all those flaps and ties and buckles..the kind that each you colors and textures and stuff. Even now I still collect random Peanuts figures, because they are just so cute.

I would love to win this. When my parents were dating my mom was teaching at a school about 1 1/2 hours away from my dad and she used to send him Peanuts books. Cute, huh? He saved them and I read them all, then my daughter did. She is a Peanuts(esp. Woodstock)fanatic and would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this book.

That's why I deserve this book!! I would cherish it!!
Thank you!!
We've been Peanuts fans forever around here --- one of my favorite plush animals was a small Snoopy that my aunt gave me. Now I can't wait to share the Peanuts gang with my twin niece and nephew and The Peanuts Collection looks like it would be the perfect way to start!
