| Notes | Sandell possibly used house name: CLIFF CAMPBELL. Harry Shorten also may have used this name as house name in comics, after Jerry Bails' Who's Who Formerly credited to "Abner Sundell", using the logic given above. But the previous story has identical credits - "Meskin and Campbell" - and is attributable to Harry Campbell, per the Who's Who. This story is also likely to be by the same man. |
