Charles M. Schulz Museum

Charles M. Schulz Museum Celebrating cartoonist Charles M. Schulz, creator of Snoopy & the PEANUTS gang!

📍50 miles north of San Francisco The Charles M.
(2361)

Schulz Museum and Research Center was designed to reflect the modest, low key, and comfortable personality and style of the internationally-famous cartoonist. Until his death in 2000, Charles “Sparky” Schulz himself was involved with each design stage. After his passing, his widow, Jean, along with close friends, family members, and museum and design professionals kept his vision in mind to create this beautiful and meaningful space as a tribute to an extraordinary man.

🎹 Happy ! Schroeder first appeared in Peanuts on this day in 1951!

🎶A devoted musical genius, Schroeder has been playing the piano since he was a baby, and no one—not even Lucy—gets between him and his idol, Ludwig van Beethoven!

When he's not at the piano, Schroeder can be found playing catcher for Charlie Brown's baseball team and reminding everyone when Beethoven’s birthday is near.

“Those strips with Schroeder playing the piano and Lucy lounging against it are tedious to draw… The musical notes have to be accurate to make it unique… People often ask me, ‘Why did you pick Beethoven?’ I guess all I can say is that the name Beethoven is funnier than Brahms.” —Charles M. Schulz

This Peanuts comic strip was published on May 8, 1973. (Visit our stories today to see Schroeder’s debut comic strip.)

🕶️ It's ! Snoopy’s hippest alter ego, Joe Cool, debuted on this day in 1971!

In his trademark sunglasses, Joe Cool is the coolest of the cool, and he knows it. His confidence stands apart from the hallmark insecurity of almost every other character in Peanuts.

He is often found hanging out at the student union or the dorm and not worrying too much about his classwork. His interests include pizza, root beer, frisbee, and keeping up with the latest campus fads.

⁉️ TRIVIA! Charles Schulz said he got the idea for Snoopy’s Joe Cool persona after overhearing his teenage son Craig talking with his friends and describing someone as “a real Joe Cool.”

This Peanuts comic strip was published on May 29, 1971. (Visit our stories today to see Joe Cool’s debut comic strip.)

🎂 Happy Birthday, Sally!

Charlie Brown becomes a big brother when his little sister Sally Brown is born on this day in 1959, making Sally the first character whose birth is recorded in Peanuts (although she herself wouldn’t appear in the strip until a few months later on August 23, 1959).

🍼 This Peanuts comic strip was first published on May 26, 1959.
