Ford Made The First Peanuts Live Animation Appearance In A Commercial
Charles M. Schulz was the illustrator who was responsible for creating all the lovable characters of Peanuts. The comics attained the peak of its popularity during the ‘60s and appeared in more than 2,600 newspapers. Around 355 million readers from 75 countries around the world read the comic strips, so it makes sense for Henry Ford to participate in the race. In 1963, he boosted the popularity of the main characters by making a commercial featuring them. This was actually the first time the gang had a live animation! Later that same year, A Charlie Brown Christmas was aired on television.
