Indexer Notes

Allison is credited by Jim Vadeboncoeur, Jr. on this feature in issue #1. The face in close up with long wavy eyebrows, visible pupils, and special ears with a tiny line at the flip, mouth with a marked upper lip, are all signs of Allison and not Nina Albright, whom he can be mixed up with. Compare with his Jesse James story in Cowboy Western #38. He is credited on working for Rural Home publishers by Jerry Bails' Who's Who.

Same art as in issue #1, and it looks like Leonard Starr, but uncertain. Jim Vadeboncoeur, Jr. has Gil Kane and/or Starr as possible artists. Must be Kane when he was Eli Katz.
