Vintage Peanuts 1950s Team Snoopy USA United Feature Syndicate Blue Bag 1958 – $60. Find it on eBay (affiliate link).
Snoopy is going for the gold! This seller is trying to cash in on what they assume is a 1950’s duffel bag based solely on the dates listed on the item. As Peanuts collectors know, however, that 1958 date refers to the copyright for Snoopy, not the manufacturer of the item. Instead, let’s use our powers of observation to determine when this bag is from. Everything about the design from the shape of the bag, to the material of the bag, and the Snoopy decoration scream 1980’s. Also, this “medal” themed bag may tie into the plethora of Peanuts memorabilia themed around the Los Angeles Summer Olympic games in 1984. The final evidence that this bag is not from 1958 is Snoopy’s big, round nose. He may be training for the Olympics, but his nose has still grown into this familiar shape over the years.
How much is a Snoopy Duffel Bag worth?
The value of this well-loved bag is sadly low for a collector. Without a strong nostalgia pull to this item, I would value it under $5. The design is just too far gone for a serious collector to pay the big bucks. Interesting, cute, a great find at a rummage sale or thrift store, but not a bag I’d be willing to break the bank for in its current condition. In mint, unused condition, I could see this bag selling for $20-30.
