Charles M. Schulz’s Peanuts comic strip made its debut in October 1950. More than a decade later, the comic strip launched a series of animated specials, the first being “A Charlie Brown Christmas,” which aired in 1965 and became a holiday staple. Since then, the series spawned a Halloween special (1966), Thanksgiving special (1973) and a 2015 animated film.
In Paris, the “Snoopy in Style: A History of Peanuts and Fashion” highlights the look and influence of Charles M. Schulz’s characters, with a few dressed by renowned designers. The exhibition began on March 22 and concludes on Saturday. Monica Rich Kosann also celebrates the anniversary with a Peanuts-inspired jewelry collection — now available.
