March 5, 1951: A toy beagle

Peanuts
What the heck is that thing Violet's dragging supposed to be?  For some reason I'm reminded of something Daffy Duck was once turned into during his fight with the animator in Duck Amuck.  Another character finally meets Violet here, although without comment.  Snoopy seems okay with becoming a toy in the last panel.

  2. Yeah, but how do you explain the polka-dots?

  3. The thick brushstrokes describing Violet's hair are extremely dramatic!
