It’s not blurry, the colourist put the layers in the wrong order after doing the new colours, and the colours are over the lines. Strange that nobody noticed before it was uploaded, though.
After reading all sorts of comics on this site, this is the only comic where this happens. I appreciate all the time and effort it takes to make this, I really do, but surely someone should’ve fixed this.
The colorist got it wrong another way. Patty is not red-headed. Maybe this is a subconscious reference to the “red-haired girl” he would introduce later.

Here it is in the gocomics archive for regular Peanuts and it’s fully legible (though reproduced in B&W).http://www.gocomics.com/peanuts/1952/03/02

Too pale and blurry. I managed to read it by clicking on zoom, but do better, guys.

Second time the color repro has been way below par.

The “dirt cheap” panel made me laugh.

I think something screwed up in transposing this strip. I’ve seen this before. The lettering is extremely faint.

They’re coloring the dailies. Maybe it’s that process that washes out the lettering in the colored Sundays.

Well, if they can’t do it correctly…
