Thank you for editing those Exciting Comics issues, Fan!

Poztron:
Many thanks for these scan uploads!

Re the Prize Comics Western #72 story that JVJ IDs as Severin-Elder, I'm not so sure. I can kind of see the possible Severin pencils underneath, but the inking strikes me as closer to Joe Maneely than to Elder. My hunch is that there are several hands at work in the art.

I have a couple of advantages over you, Poz. I showed this comic to John and discussed it with him. You may read his comments in Squa Tront #11. Plus I have experience that tells me that this is one of John's very first comic book stories and most likely Elder's, too. It's not likely they'd begin looking precisely as they would two years later. Maneely was still at Street & Smith when this was done and none of the three had yet worked for Timely, where Severin met Maneely.

If my notes are in ink, you can generally trust them. I do encourage challenges to any of my data, but feel pretty confident on this ID.

Peace, Jim (|:{>
