Original hand-inked three panel Peanuts comic strip by Charles Schulz, 20.75 x 7, signed vertically with his artist signature, “Schulz,” to lower left of last panel. The comic begins with a wide shot of Sally Brown speaking with Snoopy in the living room, explaining to the sitting pooch the rules of family hierarchy: “Each family has a chain of command, and do you know who’s the lowest on that chain? Guess!” The second panel is a bit closer and shows Sally answering with a stern, extended finger: “It’s the dog! The dog is the lowest! Do you understand that?” The final panel depicts Sally, visibly frustrated with Snoopy’s blank look, asking the dog: “I said, do you understand?” A thought bubble above Snoopy reads: “They hate it when you just stare at ‘em like this.” A United Feature Syndicate copyright notice, dated “1990,” is affixed between the first and second panels, with reverse bearing a second affixed copyright notice from United Feature Syndicate. In fine condition. This wonderful original daily Peanuts comic strip was first published on February 9, 1990, and features Charlie Brown’s faithful dog Snoopy enduring a serious one-sided conversation with Brown’s perceptive younger sister, Sally, a character seldom offered in original Schulz artwork. A fabulous original Peanuts comic strip with a humorous encounter between dog and 'master.' Accompanied by a full letter of authenticity from JSA.
