[This was the only comic book work by Black illustrator and cartoonist, Jay Paul Jackson.] Seems to be the case.
Then it should be added to the 'Notes' about the book. The Wikipedia entry on Jay Jackson doesn't mention it.
The date on this is 1940 and Jay Jackson was working for Ziff/Davis from June 1938. His comic strip work for the Defender Newspaper started in 1943, [If this information is correct of course]

If the Bugletown Green Strip he did for the Defender is PD, it would be nice, if someone had a collection of the strip, to see it on CB+.
The complete 10 issue run of 'Bungleton Green in the 21st century.'
