I didn't expect the 2 page story (34-35) to be by Mickey Spillane! Also, the page of single panel gags at the back of the book appears to be by Fred Neher, as evidenced by his Will-yum character in the center panel, from his Life's Like That gag series. Not to be confused with the character of the same name by Dave Gerard which seems to have had both a newspaper strip and Dell comics.

Yep, I believe Spillane got his start in comics. Mike Hammer started off as a comic book script (with a different name) and he just rewrote it as a book. I believe Spillane was paid for his stories the same amount, or more, than the artists.
