ALS signed “Charles Schulz,” one page, 8.5 x 11, October 20, 1954. Letter to Pogo creator Walt Kelly. In full: “How can I get any Charlie Browns drawn with you putting Pogo books out right and left, and me sittin’ around readin’ ‘em?” Under his signature, Schulz adds, “P.S. They’re real funny books.”
In the lower half of the page, Kelly writes an unsigned response, in pencil, which reads, “Dear Charlie Brown: You tell Mr. Schulz that he draws real funny and I’m sorry he wrote to me first because I’ve been meaning to do that to him all along. Tell him here’s the last book which is only a buck whereas I see his is a half dollar more. Class will tell. Yrs.” Two staple holes to top left and mild toning, otherwise fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, addressed in Schulz’s hand, and signed in the return address area, “Charles M. Schulz.” Also accompanied by the original typed carbon of Kelly’s response, as it was usually Kelly’s custom to have his secretary type his written responses. A fantastic handwritten exchange between two comic icons from the beginnings of their long and successful careers.
