Li'l Folks


 

Li'l Folks, the first comic strip by Peanuts creator Charles M. Schulz, was a weekly panel that appeared mainly in Schulz's hometown paper, the St. Paul Pioneer Press, from 1947 to 1949. (Apparently, the first two panels ran in the Minneapolis Tribune).

Li'l Folks can almost be regarded as an embryonic version of Peanuts, containing characters and themes which were to reappear in the later strip: a well-dressed young man with a fondness for Beethoven a la Schroeder, a dog with a striking resemblance to Snoopy, and even a boy named Charlie Brown.

In 2004 the Charles M. Schulz Museum in Santa Rosa, California published a book, Li'l Beginnings, collecting the strip's complete run.
