The first Peanuts comic strip appeared in seven newspapers October 2, 1950. Creator Charles Schulz had some moderate success previously with a one-panel drawings called Li'l Folks. It was dropped in January 1950, so Schulz approached United Feature Syndicate. They were more interested in the four-panel version he had developed since Li'l Folks had ended.
The first Sunday page appearance of Peanuts came on January 6, 1952. Eventually it became one of the most popular comic strips of all time. The strip has been made into 5 feature films and 45 television specials.
