Two quick comments: the handsome movie-star alter ego of "gargoyle" Lester Collins is named "Bob Colbert." Real-life actor Robert Colbert (most will remember him as one of the stars of "The Time Tunnel") hadn't yet begun his film career. Presumably he wasn't hideously ugly without makeup like Lester.

Also, "Uncle Bernie's Fun Shop" ad (pg 25 of the scan) sells a "Portable Wall Shower" which they illustrate with an image of a fully-nude blonde (in colour), which is kind of surprising.

Yes.  Both Black magic 29 and 31 weren't uploaded successfully.  The thumbnails of their front covers don't show up in the list of "Latest Comics Uploaded", and the link to their upload page sends us to an error page.

No, they were pulled as being Non-PD. In fact, on the Prize page, Black magic box is this note. NOTE #29-33 are not PD, Do not upload them!!!!

Oh no, I guess I should have downloaded them (or at least screen-capped the items of interest) when I had the chance.
