I went to the Snoopy Exhibition at Roppongi with my friend last month. Do you know this exhibition held? There were so many pictures written by Charles.M.Schulz who made Snoopy and backgrounds of him. Those pictures came from Charles.M.Schulz Museum at the city of Santa Rosa in California, United States. Because we had got the tickets before, we could enter there smoothly. A staff who was standing the entrance stamped my hand with the astronaut's snoopy. It was very cute! (I'm sorry this stamp is too light to watch.)
We could know history of Snoopy through Schulz's background there. For example, the model of snoopy was his pet dog and the model of Charlie Brown was his friend in the school. He collected data and wrote part of comic by himself. He had been writing comic strips for about half of century without almost taking a rest. We watched so many original pictures of him. I felt these had philosophical messages in funny story. (Please click this picture, and you can look this bigger.)
At last, we stopped by two souvenir shops. There were many kinds of goods, for instance, tea cups, notebooks, accessories and so on. I bought pins of Charlie Brown by Capsule toys. The souvenir which I was surprised was the original posters painted by Schulz were selled only 1,500 yen! We could buy very cute Snoopy goods cheaply.
I had a great time there because I loved Snoopy! Although this exhibition was over, I want you to go watching and know about Snoopy if the exhibition like this will be held. You will be relax by Snoopy's cuteness!
Hello, this is Nao Murakami. I really enjoyed reading your blog. I didn't know they held the Snoopy Exhibition. I am not a big fan of snoopy, but I like it. He is very cute. I'm very surprised that the souvenirs weren't expensive. I hope I can go there if they will hold it again!
ReplyDeleteHi, this is Misaki. I knew the Snoopy Exhibition was held, and I really wanted to go to there, so I envy you! I love Snoopy because he has sense of humor. Anyway thank you for introducing that, your blog makes me happy!
ReplyDeleteHello, this is Mizuki Yanagisawa. I could feel that you really like Snoopy. Yes, he is very cute! Also, I was glad to know more backgrounds of Snoopy. There were many things that I did not know. If there is an exhibition again, I certainly go and get cute souvenirs!
ReplyDeleteHello, I'm Momoko Watanabe. You seemed to enjoy it very much. I wanted to go there too! I was surprised that the model of snoopy is Shulz's pet dog. Thank you for pleasant blog.
ReplyDeleteHi, this is Ms. MacGregor. I heard about this exhibition and guessed it would be so very very crowded so I gave up planning to go. I am so glad you could go and thank you for your report! I grew up with the Peanuts gang so I have seen a lot of their cartoons and comics. I am still a Peanuts fan, of course. The best Peanuts movie is "A Charlie Brown Christmas" I think. It is in the self-study room if you would like to watch it. Thanks for adding the video of the exhibition's commercial - so cute!
