Description: 65 years old collection of Sunday Comic Strips from the 1950s. In my opinion this is the golden age of Peanuts. While the strip in its early years resembles its later form, there are significant differences. The art was cleaner, sleeker, and simpler, with thicker lines and short, squat characters. The book itself has slight wear, Indication of staples wearing through the covers, Some pages were previously folded. Tanning on edges of pages. Looks really good for a 65 Year-Old paperback book. Interesting facts: Rinehart & Company, an American publishing company, was the successor to Farrar & Rinehart, Inc. In 1946, following the departure of John C. Farrar, the company was renamed Rinehart & Company. The brothers Stanley M. Rinehart and Frederick R. Rinehart continued to operate the company until its merger with Henry Holt and Company and the John C. Winston Company in 1960, to form Holt, Rinehart and Winston. The Rinehart brothers were the sons of the famed mystery writer, Mary Roberts Rinehart, whose books were published by the company.The publishing company that printed this book also printed "Seduction of the Innocent (1953-1954)". A book infamous in the history of the Comic book industry. Authors associated with this publisher were Langston Hughes, Norman Mailer, Charles Schultz and Frederick Wertham among many others.
