FineCollector Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 (edited) There were hardcover reprints 10 years ago that were very popular, The Complete Peanuts. It was never on my radar, but people that bought them seemed very happy with them. https://www.amazon.com/Complete-Peanuts-1950-1952-Vol/dp/156097589X/ref=pd_bxgy_14_3?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=1MNWWXH4ZHDBS5T9C9RP&dpID=412f7OoMF0L&preST=_SX218_BO1,204,203,200_QL40_&dpSrc=detail I'm not sure what original cover price was, but they aren't expensive right now, so your pal is in luck.

Boardie Rick's Neat Stuff is among the few top resident experts on Peanuts, if you say his name three times absolutely nothing will probably happen, but it couldn't hurt. He's actually sold some amazing golden age funny books to fund his peanut addiction. Ricksneatstuff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkadin Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Your friend is right - the early Peanuts have a wonderful look to them. Here are a few Sunday strips I have from 1952 (first year). Senormac and mr_highgrade 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisco37 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 If your friend is looking for originals, as others have said, they are really expensive. And also a favorite of forgers (who seem to think that Schultz is easy to imitate). Beware of fakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always wondered what he was going after during his sales. Kind of funny turning GGA into Peanuts. grebal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
