Sworn to and subscribed before me this 29th day of September, 1939. Berta M. Holcepl, Notary Public Kings County Clerk's No. 337, Register's No. 1009? [smudged] New York County Clerk's No. 15, Register's No. 1H11? [smudged] Commission expires March 30, 1939 [smudged, but the "3" is clear enough even though that would put the expiration earlier than the date of this document! Perhaps a typo?] Lower right of inside front cover. Per Frank Motler, E L. Angel is Evangeline Angel, wife of Warren Angel who was the head of Kable News. Therefore Centaur was likely distributed by Kable at this point.

SynopsisWhen Blarsted, the most powerful man in Mesquite, drives out the Sherrif, the Phantom Rider comes to his aid.
ContentGenre: Western-frontier | Characters: Phantom Rider; Sherrif Warder; Blarsted
NotesArt previously attributed to Martin Filchock, but Jim Amash of the Timely-Atlas list spoke with Filchock and confirmed that he never worked on the Phantom Rider nor with Jack Cole. This arguably calls into question the Cole credit as well, which was from the same source (Henry Andrews 2009-03-16).

ContentGenre: Superhero | Characters: The Owl [Jack]; The Owl's father; Zeb Hale (death)
NotesNeither the Owl nor his father are named in the story. While Filchock generally wrote the stories he illustrated, Jerry Bails' Who's Who specifically lists him as only the artist here (Henry Andrews 2009-03-10). The Owl's first name was Jack, but his last name was never revealed.
