Notes:
The Centaur Group's second and final proper indicia publisher. Initially published only Amazing Man Comics (which was co-advertised with Centaur Publications, Inc. titles as the "Centaur Group"), but was used for additional new titles with patriotic themes several months after the demise of Centaur Publications, Inc., as well as a continuation of Centaur's The Arrow. These later titles, including The Arrow, were also co-advertised with Amazing Man comics, without the Centaur Group branding.
Comic Corporation of America also produced giveaway comics for the Chicago Mail Order Company. Some that were likely produced by this company do not have any indicia information, and therefore even though they are suspected to be published by this company, they only appear under the larger Centaur grouping in the GCD.
Finally, Comic Corporation of America began producing humor comics targeted at military servicemen starting in late 1941. These were not co-advertised and had a different tone and audience, and are found under the Hardie-Kelly publisher grouping: https://www.comics.org/indicia_publisher/6307/
While these other publications continued to later years, the Centaur-related activity by this company stopped in 1942.
Known address recorded as of March 1942: 215 Fourth Avenue, New York, N. Y.
