On Wikipedia, in the article ?The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy
dog?, it says that in the Peanuts comic strip, Snoopy often types the
sentence when pretending that he is a famous writer. (Go to
www.wikipedia.com, searching for ?The quick brown fox?, and looking at
the Trivia section) However, the article does not mention any dates or
years in which the phrase is used in his comics. I would like to know
in which specific comic strips does the ?quick brown fox? sentence get
used? There may be several comic strips that use this sentence, and so
listing more than one would be appropriate.

Please be specific with years, days, and dates in which a specific
Peanuts comic has a mention of the ?quick brown fox? sentence. If only
part of the sentence is used, please say so in your reply.

Please list as many comic dates as you can,
stating if the whole sentence or part of the sentence is used. Links
to comics (legally) posted to the web will geatly help.

According to this newsgroup post, "The quick brown fox jumped over the
unfortunate dog" appeared in the "Peanuts" strip of May 27, 1974.
Looks as if Snoopy wasn't very good at pangrams. ;-)

As I remember, when Snoopy got his typewriter out to write, he never
got beyond the opening line:  "It was a dark and stormy night ..."
