Robb_K over on CB+ tells us: "This book is a hodge-podge of stories reprinted from various sources: HappyJack was "Handy Andy" in EC Comics' "Dandy Comics", Sparkie was originally printed in "Big Jon and Sparkie Comics" published by Ziff-Davis, The "Alice" story was issued by Ziff-Davis, The Tailspin Taylor story was commissioned by St. John. Red Top Comics, like Decker Comics was a reprint line of comics published by Robert Farrell, in 1957 and '58, issuing only stories from various publishers, from printing plates he bought at bargain-basement prices from publishers going out of business, or from warehouses clearing out their leftover stock from defunct publishers, just like Israel Waldman did for his IW and Super Comics, and Norlen Comics did. Much of this 1951 and '52 Ziff-Davis stock was first bought by Archer St. John, and reprinted by them in 1953 and '54, and then bought again by Farrell, and reprinted, along with other St. John stock, in Farrell's Decker and Red Top Comics in 1957 and '58."
