March 17, 1951: A bona-fide supraman

Peanuts
Charlie Brown and Patty at a table, another suspiciously kid-sized one, and have dinner as if they were married.  Charlie Brown's expressions in panels two and three make this one for me.  His logic is from what I like to call the Yossarian School of Philosophy.

February 5, 1951: Sitting at the kids' table

Peanuts
More Snoopy cuteness here.  Here we see him begging and standing in a normal dog-like pose.  Awww.

But the real reason I picked this strip out is the size of Charlie Brown's table.  Not only is it his size, but it looks a little funny in order to squeeze his legs under it and have his arms above it.  Notice that he's pulled a bit away, probably because he can't sit close to it!  Visual puzzles like this must have been a tremendous test for Charles Schulz's ingenuity in the early days.
