Original hand-inked four panel Peanuts daily comic strip, dated October 4, 1984, on an off-white 24 x 7 sheet of off-white artist’s cardstock. Strip depicts Snoopy and Woodstock playing basketball, with Snoopy realizing the term one-on-one doesn’t quite apply to Woodstock due to his height. Signed vertically in black ink in the last panel, “Schulz,” and also signed and inscribed along the top border in black felt tip to basketball Hall of Famer Julius Erving, “For Dr. J with friendship & admiration—Charles M. Schulz (Sparky).” Strip is affixed to a slightly larger piece of foam core. In fine condition, with an unobtrusive central vertical fold between the second and third panel and a few spots of LiquidPaper to second panel. Accompanied by a signed letter of authenticity from Erving stating the strip belonged to him and his family, and also accompanied by an unsigned color satin-finish 10 x 8 photo of Schulz holding an autographed basketball presented to him by Erving. Any Schulz strip is highly desirable, but one with such association, intimate signature, and sports content presented to a basketball legend, complete with provenance, elevates this to the upper echelon of available Schulz strips.
