Indexer Notes
Max Elkan is one of three artists credited on Buffalo Belle by Jerry Bails' Who's Who. Horses with few inklines on the tail, and also faces and inking are all very much like his credited work on "The Cross-Draw Kid" in Western Adventures #3. The other two artists are Charles Sultan and Ray Willner, and this is not their work, so most probably Elkan.
