The Pen is Mighty: The Lettering of Charles M. Schulz

Upstairs Changing Gallery

Charles M. Schulz took enormous pride in his lettering—and rightfully so! Many of his contemporaries turned over what they saw as the drudgery of lettering to assistants. Schulz did it all himself, developing his unique style and making it an extension of the drawing, achieving a higher expressiveness in his strips. Whether it’s Lucy shouting, Charlie Brown mumbling, or even Woodstock chirping, the lettering of Charles Schulz says so much.
