PEANUTS Sweatshirts

For a comic strip that its creator declared was ‘about nothing’, made up only of ‘little incidents’, Peanuts’ influence on culture and society is nothing short of seismic. The cultural footprint of Charles Schulz is unlike anything else. Peanuts’ appeal was universal: It was beloved by young and old, by the intelligentsia as well as the masses; it was the definition of mainstream, yet it was also embraced by the counterculture.

This season we celebrate the deft, subtle humour of Schulz inherent in some of our favourite single panels collected from strips spanning 3 decades.
