His backgrounds are a bit sparse, but Gollub did nice work on this story. I like the extended fight scene; it was cut like a movie, something uncommon in comics at the time.

ContentGenre: Western-frontier | Characters: Big Jim Traft; Jim Traft (his nephew); Molly Dunn; Slinger Dunn; Hack Jocelyn
NotesAdapted from the 1929 novel, "The Drift Fence," by Zane Grey. A sequel to this story, "Hash Knife Outfit," was adapted as "Range War" in Four Color #555 (May-July 1954). Gollub Illustrated the main story and used many of his wrestling moves in the fight scene panels. It is also his habit on interior panels to show the direction of the movement with curved lines. I concur that both front cover and back cover are his work as well. Rick Richmond.
