Walt Kelly - Pogo

Here's the first week of Walt Kelly's Pogo from the short lived paper the New York Star. I'm assuming that Pogo didn't appear in the Saturday editions as I can't seem to find any. Though I'm no authority on the subject. I noticed that Volume One of the Pogo collections from Fantagraphics is up for pre-order on Amazon but there's no date. The publishing date on the book info says November of '09 so maybe it will finally be released this fall. On the other hand I read on a forum that Fantagraphics will be releasing it closer to the 2010 San Diego Comic Con. Anyone out there have a definitive release date for the first volume?
