Peanuts Soundtrack Appraisal

Snoopy's Flashbeagle Soundtrack Vinyl Record Album Cover

This item is a 12-inch vinyl record album cover, likely for a soundtrack or compilation, given its 'Flashdance' theme, as indicated by the 'Flashbeagle' title. The cover art features iconic Peanuts characters, Snoopy and Woodstock, depicted in dynamic poses suggesting movement and dance. Snoopy is prominently placed, wearing a green sweatshirt and black sneakers, mid-air with limbs flailing as if dancing to a beat. Woodstock is seen above him, also in a lively pose. The background is a vibrant, neon pink color with a subtle grid pattern, evoking the popular aesthetic of the 1980s. Abstract brushstrokes in vivid blue, red, and hints of yellow and green are scattered across the composition, adding to the energetic feel. The title 'Flashbeagle' is written in a stylized, brushstroke font in blue on the left side of the cover. A faint signature, 'SCHULZ', is visible vertically on the right side, confirming the creator of the Peanuts characters. The overall quality of the printing appears good, with bright, saturated colors. No significant creases, tears, or major surface wear are immediately visible, suggesting the cover is in 'practically new' condition, as per the provided context. The edges and corners appear relatively sharp, indicating minimal handling. The character copyright of 1958 and record copyright of 1984 confirm its period of creation and design, placing it firmly within the mid-1980s, a period known for its distinctive pop culture and art styles. The combination of beloved cartoon characters with a contemporary movie theme makes this a unique crossover item.
