This is a Love Letter – Personal Correspondences
from Charles M. Schulz

April 1, 2011
7:00 pmto10:00 pm


OPENING THIS FRIDAY – April 1st.
This is a Love Letter
Personal Correspondences from Charles M. Schulz

From the Private Collection of Katie Leeman
April 1st – 29th, 2011
Opening Reception: First Friday, April 1st, 7 – 10pm

*******************
Space 1026 is proud to present This is a Love Letter, a collection of personal letters from Peanuts cartoonist Charles M. Schulz to native Philadelphian Tracey Claudius. Providing a rare glimpse into the beloved cartoonist’s life and private thoughts in the early ’70s, this event marks the first time the letters will be presented to the public by their owner, Claudius’ daughter Katie Leeman .

David Michaelis’ biography of Charles M. Schulz, Schulz and Peanuts (Harper-Perennial, 2008), revealed the beloved Peanuts icon’s relationship with fan and friend, Tracey Claudius. During the 70s, Schulz briefly dated Claudius, and the famed cartoonist wrote nearly one hundred poignant and heartfelt letters to her throughout their time together. Now unearthed by Claudius’ daughter, these love letters bear testimony to a warm and affectionate two-year relationship, and offer a tender glimpse at the mind that created an international institution.
