July 4, 1952: Snoopy and Schroeder
The two wordless wonders, together for the first time.
One thing about Peanuts that is right there in the open but is mentioned surprisingly rarely is how some characters never seem to interact with other ones. Schroeder and Linus don't have a lot of interactions. Neither do Lucy and Peppermint Patty (who calls her "Lucille"). Schroeder and Snoopy do have some interactions, but not as many as Schroeder and Lucy, who interact so often in the strip's heyday you could be forgiven for thinking Schroeder must be an imaginary friend of Lucy's.
Hey, is this the first "sigh?"

I like Snoopy's paw as he plays the piano. That's a paw shape that doesn't occur with latter-day Snoopy.
