Re Worth Carnahan, from Paws link to 'The field guide to American Pulp Artists' [ A great site by the way],
Quote
However, his brief title as "publisher" may have been as insubstantial as other "fronts" employed by Harry Donenfeld to disguise his financial involvement, such as Frank Armer, Louis Shade, Adolphe Barreaux, Merle Hersey, and Jack Leibowitz, all of whom were occasionally listed as publishers of somewhat circumspect periodicals produced by Harry Donenfeld.

After 1943 Worth B. Carnahan no longer worked in the comic book industry. 


Hmmm! The thick plottens!

LAMME, ROBERT CASEY was born 16 January 1917, received Social Security number xxx-xx-xxxx (indicating Florida) and, Death Master File says, died 26 April 1981.

Bob Lamme was the childhood best friend of Hal Kanter in Miami, where the two were classmates at Southside Elementary School. Lamme, who had no comic book credits elsewhere, was assigned Frederick Marryat?s Mr. Midshipman Easy, CLASSICS ILLUSTRATED #74 (Aug 1950). Albert Kanter offered to employ him full-time, but the artist preferred to stay in Florida. He  joined The Miami Herald in 1948 as an advertising department artist. See: Florida, Land of Images. With Drawings by Bob Lamme. Smiley, Nixon. Published Miami, Florida: E.A. Seemann Publishing, Inc., (1972). First Edition., 1972. ?William B. Jones, Jr., Classics Illustrated: A Cultural History, Second Edition, ? 2011, McFarland & Company, Inc., Page 116

Not an artist, but I still thought to pop back into this thread after seeing Batman & Bill, about the main driving force behind the creation of Batman, Bill Finger. There were even a couple of recordings of Bill's voice, something I thought I'd never get to hear.
