Peanuts by Charles Schulz for April 13, 2023

a double-billed cap… wow

The classic DeerStalker (baseball) Cap

“Elementary, my dear Watson”

Is anyone else reminded of Buster Keaton and Steamboat Bill Jr?

Hey, if you get tired of baseball you can always take up beekeeping, all you have to do is hang netting from those peaks.

Good sun protection protects both the back and the face.

Is PP coming or going?

Well at least the improved design keeps the sun off both your face and the back of your neck.;-D

Well, at least from her first design to this one, Marcie’s moving in the right direction. As for PP, we can’t tell which direction she’s going!

I have a gardener’s cap which has a bill encompassing 2/3’s of the cap covering both ears as well as the face. Plus there a curtain hanging down the back to cover the neck. It has air vents for cooling and is soft cloth construction.

Maybe keep Marcie away from fashion.

This is quite a mystery.

No neck sunburn – I kinda like it!

Marcie’s pretty good at making these caps.

It also makes a good rain hat here in the PNW

Charlie Brown’s team’s caps were originally red, according to today’s Peanuts Begins (or according to the colorist for today’s Peanuts Begins, anyway.)

Patty: Elementary, my dear Marcie, when it come to hat design, you stink!

Well, that just solved the problem of today of people wearing their hats backwards (some have their heads backwards) and squinting from the sun in their eyes.

Marci has missed her calling! As an adult (in cartoons) she’d make a great Milliner making hats & caps of all types.

Smart design to have the regular and rally cap all in one.

Rapper: lil patty the peppermint

How literary!

It’d keep the sun off your neck.

Actually,this one’s pretty good.

What Patty is pitching the hitters won’t be able to tell if she’s coming or going.

You’ve got it on backward, silly!

Peppermint Patty is just “brimming” with pride! d;o)

Marcie is sort of PP’s Watson.

I have seen a double edged cap after long.

Happy Jackie Robinson Day eve.

So is that a reversible cap, Marcie? One said says “Peppermint Patty’s Ball Club” and the other side “Eat At Joe’s”.

Just cut off the back bill, Marcie, and you’ve got it!

Are we ready to solve a mystery?

Snoopy lives!

The Janus Cap.

When the Giants and Athletics first started their “Bay Bridge” pre-season series, the commemorative caps looked like that; you could wear it facing one way to look like a Giants cap, or turn it around to look like an Athletics cap.

Marcie’s Haberdashery.

I suppose it’s widely known that the Deer Stalker Cap for Sherlock Holmes was a film affectation, as A. C. Doyle never imagined his protagonist as wearing one … ;)
