Art credits from Tales of Terror: The EC Companion, per interview with Johnny Craig.
On a December 1955 visit to the EC offices, EC historian Fred Bernewitz recorded an interview with Bill Gaines in which Gaines recalled that "it was an interesting story. DC wouldn't buy it because, at the end of the story, a white man marries the Indian, and this is mixing of the races, which up at DC they apparently didn't go for. Somebody came in in here with a script, pencils and lettering already done, and we bought it from him. Craig inked it, and we had it re-lettered in our own machine lettering."
