The Peanuts Treasury was printed when I was little kid. It was amazing and had numerous Peanuts strips from the 50's and 60's. It actually taught me how to read. I was lucky enough to get a reprint about 15 years ago. Charles Shultz was a a genius of observation.
His ability to communicate the warmth of theses characters through those pen strokes is next level. What a treat.
Hey guys love this podcast especially when you
Review this type of stuff. Charles Schulz died in 2000 not 2005.
His art kept getting better, even in the later years when his hand was shaky. He made the the wobbly lines work in such an eye pleasing way.
It’s a fantastic book and no one is better at presenting material like this in a pleasing manner than Chip Kidd. This brings back many warm memories for me as “Peanuts” was the first comic strip I loved as a little kid. My old Auntie, Auntie Dot, knew of my love for “Peanuts” and she used to mail me the “Peanuts” Sunday comic page every week for years on end until I became a teenager. Kind of chokes me up right now thinking of how sweet a thing that was to do.
24:38 About that dent in the surface of Schulz's drawing table, he joked that when the time came that he wore the hole down all the way through the board, he would retire. (He also said that he would retire when he had used up the last of his favorite 914 Radio nibs, which was a joke because, as you say in the video, he had bought the company's entire supply.)
Chip Kidd is the GOAT
Charles Schulz died in the year 2000
That LETTERING man!...Beautiful.
What a great book. Really changed how I viewed Peanuts, along with the Fanta collection. I had only seen 80s 90s peanuts. The first 30 years are unmatched.
Minor correction: Schulz died in 2000.
you two guys.. you're fucking awesome, thank you for the class
Love this book. My paperback copy is falling apart but still one of my favorites. Peanuts was my first love in comics. I used to check out those Snoopy and the Red Baron paperbacks from the library when I could barely read. I wrote to him when I was like five or six and he wrote back encouraging me to keep drawing. It was magical, like getting a letter from Santa. If it weren't for that letter, I probably would have found another hobby, but I'm convinced it's what led me to make the insane decision to pursue cartooning. Thanks, Sparky!
Thanks for sharing and highlighting the fantastic job that Chip Kidd accomplished with this work. A new perspective on Charles Schulz and Peanuts is always welcome!
Love this book and adore the Fantagraphics reprints. Thanks for sharing guys.
Thank you guys! I so love all of your reviews!
I’ve had this in my library since the softcover released. It’s gorgeous.
Hey guys!! Great video on Schultz’s work. Big fan of it!! Thx again for all u do!!
Thanks for showing this awesome photo Peanuts book, didn't no it existed! 😎👍
Amazing stuff as usual, folks! That Batman book Jim mentioned in the beginning truly is amazing, but I had never seen this Peanuts one.
Trying to answer a couple of questions you two raised during the video:
04:45 Many printers prefer to use DOTS for the 25% shades and LINES for the 50% because dots look weird after 40% darkness (unless you use white dots on top of solids, which would be slower and more expensive). You can see another example of this technique in the first issues of AMERICAN FLAGG.
17:40 This is done with Ben Day screens, an older/slower process that was later substituted by the faster/cheaper Zipatone sheets (ex.: 1930s Tarzan strips)
And two more notes:
22:00 I wonder if Sparky had Wally Wood's "22 Panels That Always Work" in his studio wall... That would be funny
24:50 It's just like Willie Nelson's acoustic guitar!! I had never thought of drafting tables as being the cartoonists' guitars, but it kinds makes sense.
Thanks again!!
Me: Oh look a new Kayfabe video.
Credit Card: Here comes the hand! Is he on eBay already??..RUN!!
This one fell too close to home, man.
I swear you guys are awesome..by coincidence I literally recieved this same book in the mail from ebay last week. Truly neat book. Keep it up guys..
I'd love to see a Richard Sala episode from you guys!
Went to a Charles Schulz exhibition in London back in 2019... it was INCREDIBLE. It was amazing how progressive he was in terms of depicting people of colour and women’s rights; super inspiring. Gotta get this book!
Peppermint Patty is a tomboy icon.
One of the kids that took correspondence courses from Schulz was Tom Sutton. In the Comics Journal Sutton interview (2001), Groth seemed surprised that Schulz had once done this.
If I recall correctly, that company was also where he met his wife?
An incredible career with a consistent, if shaky, hand ✍️ on the artistic tiller every step of the way. It was a sad day when Charles Schulz left us for that Sopwith Camel and the Hunt Eternal for the Bloody Red Baron of Germany. Another great overview, Gentlemen! 🖖♾
Well, shit. I didn't know there was a hardcover version of this book. Now I wanna upgrade.

Hi, anyone know what’s the main difference between this book and the “Only what’s necessary” by Chip Kidd as well?
I was wondering about this question too! This seems to have been published by Pantheon and the other one is from Fantagraphics? It's out of print, I could only find used copies.
Anyone know what the title of the off-model collection is?
I have this book, it is excellent. Chip Kidd was recently on the Gilbert Gottfried podcast and has lots of anecdotal stories about the art and the family. Check it out.
Can you guys get your hands on some Nick mags and show them?
John: no charles m. schulz died 2000.
I hit Ebay and bought a copy 10 minutes into the vid.
What’s it called? Can’t find it
