Good
Price, Charlie Brown
 A
1965 Peanuts Sunday comic page sold
for an impressive $47,800—which should
make periodically depressed Charlie
Brown happy.
In
this uproarious comic, outfielder Lucy
Van Pelt wryly observes, "Make
a guy a manager and right away he turns
into a crabby old man." Charlie
Brown and Lucy have brought a lot of
the laughs to "the Great American
Pastime." This strip has an image
area of approximately 22.5" x 15.25".
Speaking
of depression, Peanuts creator Charles
Schultz was afflicted with manic depression.
Charlie Brown provided an outlet for
expressing his feelings. While often
unhappy himself, Charles Schultz was
still able to bring smiles and laughs
to millions of people around the world.
