Splendid original drawing of nine Peanuts characters filing onto a school bus (plus the foot of another already boarded), all clutching lunch bags or school books, ink on off-white artist’s cardstock, 18 x 8, signed vertically at lower left, “Schulz.” Among the characters depicted are Charlie Brown, Schroeder, Lucy, Sally, Patty, Linus, Violet, Shermy, and one other (possibly the lesser-seen Rerun van Pelt). Though the original purpose of the sketch is unknown, it may have originated as part of an advertising campaign, perhaps for Butternut Bread (for which Schulz designed Peanuts-related promotional materials in the late 1960s). Framed to an overall size of 19.5 x 9.5. In very fine condition. A most unusual opportunity to obtain such a large and varied gathering of Peanuts characters on a single item!
