I remember these when I was a kid.
Our local paper ran a Peanuts version of it at the top of the front page of the newspaper.

Giving away comics? Ye gods! ;^)
This is the kind of extra, interactive stuff I like to see. Just doing one’s comic every day isn’t enough and really, it never was. Somehow comics have gotten away from the extra ways they used to be involved in newspapers and with readers.

Jim is a genius when it comes to merchandising… but is one of the worst artist in the comic strip world: doesn´t write, doesn´t draw, just manages the strip and of course cha-ching!
