This month we have a Fox Spotlight.
So you should try Phantom Lady, Blue Beetle, Green Mask and Big 3.  You might also check our Archives section where some characters have gotten the Collection treatment there.

Enjoy the scans!

I'm on Charlton FB site and there is lots of discussion about BB in all of his incarnations. I just recently found out Phantom Lady wasn't originally Quality! Before coming to this site I had some familiarity with Lev Gleason,Centaur, and Fox-I'm getting into the Ace stuff-because I don't know it that well.

I like these two links that someone posted here from a similar request I had made regarding a specific hero. The first link is a giant pdf loaded with all the golden age comics with a break-down by issue of who appears and when it was first published. Many characters I saw on there I would not have thought to look in those titles. Such as, Plastic Man was prominently featured in Police comics, which I figured was all about detectives and gang-busters from the title.

The second link you can use to pin point where a specific character appears and also does a good job of listing the creators when that info is available. Simply type a superhero's name (such as Miss Victory, or The Shield) and you can see what comics they appeared in. All the comics, not just the Golden Age ones.

both have been my road maps to the Golden Age stories I would be interested most in.

I'm not sure what you mean by that. Quality was the first publisher to use Phantom Lady.  Unless you mean she was created by the Eisner/Iger shop.   Quality had PL, then Fox, then Ajax, then Charlton (I think they reprinted a few Ajax stories) then DC. There was also IW/Super if you wish to count their unauthorized reprints.
