Snoopy Keychain

The world's most famous beagle, reduced to something you can hang off a set of keys. Snoopy has been in newspapers since the fifties: the dog who sleeps flat out on the roof of his kennel, types novels nobody wants to publish, and flies imaginary sorties against the Red Baron. His outline is one of the very few cartoon silhouettes that still reads instantly once it has been shrunk to pocket size. That legibility is the entire point of a charm like this. It works on house keys, a car fob bunch, a rucksack zip pull or a work lanyard, and it is light enough that nobody resents carrying it about. An easy gift for Peanuts readers of any age, and one of the better things to run as a small batch for a school fair, a market stall or a row of stockings.
