How To Sell An Original Charles Schulz Peanuts Cartoon
Selling an original Charles Schulz Peanuts cartoon can be lucrative, but its extensive history impacts its value. With Peanuts being one of the longest-running comic strips by one person, collectors’ preferences vary widely, affecting the cartoon’s worth. Despite Schulz’s focus on Peanuts throughout his career, values can differ significantly across time periods. To ensure a fair deal, it’s crucial to get the cartoon appraised. With no new Peanuts cartoons produced since Schulz’s passing, original artwork has surged in value. Whether from the earlier “rocky” years or later, appraisal is essential before selling.
