I came across a letter that I received in 1977 from Charles M. Schulz, the creator of Peanuts, while I was going through some old boxes:

I can still recall the feelings of amazement and excitement that I experienced when I received this letter. Even then I understood that the production of a daily comic strip could be quite demanding, so for Charles M. Schulz to have take the time to reply to my letter made it that much more special.
