The Biggest Dog in Town

The first week of the school holidays surely belonged to Snoopy, of Peanuts fame. He wandered around the streets to advertise the film at the Regent, "A Boy Named Charlie Brown," and even had hundreds of kennels made for him. These were entered in the "Kennel For Snoopy" competition and the judges had a hard time picking the winners in the two sections.
