The season for the classic Peanuts television specials is here! Ushered in with the annual broadcast of It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown for Halloween, the seasonal specials will continue with A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving and A Charlie Brown Christmas. To celebrate, here is a 1968 classic print ad—starring a delightfully in-character Lucy Van Pelt—from one of the Peanuts specials's sponsor mainstays, Dolly Madison. The Peanuts characters even appeared in animated commercials for Dolly Madison baked goods, such as Zingers (for which, in the 1980s, Snoopy appeared as the insatiable Zinger Zapper).
