Pages: 8
Disclose Notes: Originally credited to Al Luster, but there is none of Lusters very special and extremely broadbrimmed hats, neither his long narrow faces. Looks more like the unknown artist on the last story in Crime & Punishment #9 and first story in #12, with short figures. A mixture of Lee Ames and George Evans.
