Your theory that the goat character artist might be Pattengill looks possible.

It was also suggested to me animator Don Patterson having drawn them based on the Phineas the Great art from Ha Ha Comics #11, but somehow I dont think Patterson would have gone by as *E. D. Pat,* with his full name, in so far as I know, being *Donald W. Patterson.* With the art looking so similar to Pattengills Phineas the Great art from the previous year, I get the feeling that *Pat* could refer to Pattengill, while *E. D.* could be either the writer or inker, possibly Ed Dunn.

I think I remember Ed Dunn signing some stories as "E.D.". But that Phineas page doesn't look like Dunn's drawing style.

Allan G. Benedict is another animator who dabbled in comic books thru the Ben Sangor Studio:

Anyways, animators I think drew for Circus Comics #2 (June 1945):

Larry Riley:

Bill Hudson:

Al Pross:

Don?t have a specific animator for this one, though it looks familiar:

Typical Jason style. Riley worked for Sangor for a while, too. While with Jason, he also worked for Ace.

Riley also appears to have drawn for Candy Comics, Cryin' Lion Comics, and Nutty Comics, considering how he draws vibrations, hands, and the chubbiness on some characters.

Possibly drawn by Terrytoons animator Connie Rasinski, in addition to his Nutty Comics work mentioned in a previous post:

Jamboree #3:

Pop Pop Comics #1:

Frisky Fables #4:

Cowboys 'n' Injuns #1:

Tick Tock Tales #1:

Timothy and The Robot was clearly drawn by Carl Wessler.

Timothy and The Robot was clearly drawn by Carl Wessler.

I can understand how it could give that impression initially, though from what I saw, Wesslers faces tend to be pretty static, contorted, and neurotic-looking. The Timothy art has details from which Im understanding Rasinski used so far, such as constant thick beads of sweat and having one eye be bigger than the other eye, along with more flexibility in his fast motions.

Robb_K · « **Reply #83 on:** January 30, 2021, 04:42:36 AM »

I think you may be right. I was just looking at the rabbit. The wolves look too well-drawn to be Wessler. And you're right about the movement of the characters being too fluid to be Wessler. But, the rabbit is certainly a weird-looking character - not typical of Rasinski. The rabbit on the later page looks a lot more normal, and a lot better than Wessler could have drawn.

I think Wessler was weirder in drawing rabbits to start with:

I also came to conclude that Rasinski drew for Inspector Klooz back in 1945, with how visuals such as the dog are drawn for example, similar to Hank from Helpful Hank.

Bill Newton:

Likely the same Bill Newton who did early 1950s (sort of animation) television cartoons for shows like Uncle Mistletoe (Christmas on State Street: 1940s and Beyond by Robert P. Ledermann, 2002):

Possible animator mentioned in The Wilkes-Barre Record (March 19, 1938):

?After gaining much local fame as painter of personalities, Maurice Kashuba, Grove Street, has met success in the cartooning field as evidenced by work appearing frequently in Star Ranger and Funny Picture magazines which are published in New York and have nation wide circulation. In an adventure strip, "Rattle snake Gulch," the local man collaborates with Thomas Curry, but the other story, ?Fire,? is his own effort. Mr. Kashuba gained state wide publicity five years ago while at the local high school when he drew a pen and ink sketch of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and was lauded highly for the accomplishment by the Chief Executive who autographed the work. This picture was donated to the school and adorns the high school office. Three years ago he was employed with Max Fleischer, Inc., animators of "Popeye," and ?Betty Boop? cartoons, but was forced to resign due to poor health -

That makes a LOT more sense than the prolific actor having also been a cartoonist at the same time.

Yeah, I got the impression it was the same guy, but decided to hold off on a further edit because of that birthdate inconsistency.

Liggera was a long-time inker with Western Publishing's Comic Book Division. He was the main inker for Tony Strobl for many years, during the late 1950s and 1960s.

His closer association with the medium also leads me to think that he?s the JFL from Goofy Comics #15 instead of Jim Logan. I also came to think that the Loughlin from Giggle Comics is Edwin Loughlin (mistaken to be Laughlin) instead of Tom O?Loughlin.
