Framed Autographed Comic Print: Hand-Signed by Charles M. Schulz (Peanuts)
This entry showcases an authentic, primary-source piece of American pop culture, cartooning, and animation history: an original limited-edition hand-colored Peanuts comic strip print titled Circle the Zambonis!, hand-signed in graphite pencil by legendary creator and cartoonist Charles M. Schulz. Professionally matted and housed in a lacquer black frame with gold inner trim, this signed presentation captures one of Schulz's most beloved winter sports gags.
Created by Charles M. Schulz in 1950, Peanuts stands as the most influential and widely read comic strip in newspaper history, reaching over 350 million readers in 75 countries at its peak. Honored with the Congressional Gold Medal and inducted into the Will Eisner Comic Industry Hall of Fame, Schulz transformed popular culture through his enduring characters, including Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Woodstock, and Linus. Schulz was famously an avid ice hockey enthusiast and ice arena owner, frequently incorporating ice skating and Zamboni machines into his classic winter strips.
The artwork features a full-color, single-panel Peanuts scene depicting Charlie Brown addressing Snoopy on an outdoor ice rink, asking: "As the world famous hockey coach, what do you do when the other team attacks?". Snoopy responds with the iconic punchline speech bubble: "Circle the Zambonis!", as Woodstock and his fellow birds drive a miniature fleet of orange Zambonis in a defensive ring.
Positioned cleanly along the lower right white margin beneath the print, Charles M. Schulz has rendered a bold pencil signature ("Charles M. Schulz"). Along the lower left margin, the print is hand-numbered 107/500 from a limited edition of 500 pieces. Preserved in fine condition with archival matting, crisp line work, and vivid hand-colored accents, this autographed lithograph serves as a premier centerpiece for Peanuts collectors, animation archivists, and comic art historians.
