With a collection of over 6,000 original pieces of cartoon art, this museum is the largest museum in the US dedicated to Comic art. It all began in 1984, when a group of artists set up a series of open-air exhibitions of their work. Impressed by the dedication of this group, 'Peanuts' creator Charles M. Schulz helped the group set up a permanent home to display comics and comic art. You can find the works of Bud Fisher (Mutt and Jeff), George Herriman (Krazy Kat) and Charles M. Schulz (Peanuts), and a variety of other comic works on display at this museum.
