A Charlie Brown Christmas
By Charles M. Schulz
First edition, first impression. Based on the first ever TV special adaptation of the Peanuts comic strip, which aired in December 1965.
Original pictorial boards with burgundy endpapers and paste-downs. Very minor and isolated instances of rubbing to spine ends and corners with slight dustiness to a portion of the top edge, else fine and clean throughout with no names, marks or inscriptions.
The original and unclipped dust jacket has a small nick to the bottom edge of lower panel and very mild rubbing to edges, primarily to corners and spine.
A beautiful copy of a book that is rarely found in the dust jacket and in such good condition.
