Loads of fun in these early and primitive strips. I'm going slowly, savoring each one and reading a few pages at a time. Sunday strip just started and I'm in January 1952. PS: Schroeder is the one character who's annoying more than funny. He's only a baby or maybe a toddler and just got his Beethoven bust.

Lucy introduced on March 3, 1952. So much younger than Charlie Brown, which will be retconned later. Same for Linus. Schroeder still my least favorite character by far. Lots of great strips in these early years...

Lots of good ones in early 1951! Very different style that's appealing.

Read all the 1950 strips. Onward to '51. Very primitive with more duds than expected. Will Peanuts be another god that fails and falls?
