The Attempted Bloggery blog shows us what seems to be every bit of promotional art by Charles Schulz from the Butternut Bread promotions through the 1960s and early 70s. Most all of this was specially done and it's a trove of unseen PEANUTS art. I'm sorry I missed it when it was posted a year ago. Glad I stumbled on it this morning.
I'm glad you stumbled on it too, Mike. If you had found it when I first posted it, you would have seen a much smaller selection. Even today, it is far from complete, and I hope to add new material when I can. There is still much to be discovered about this incredible advertising campaign, and I would love to hear from anyone with either original Schulz Butternut artwork or published promotional material.
