Indexer Notes

Cover images above and below the 'Mail Girl' title (with different coloring) are actually taken from panels in this story.

Art attribution in dispute. Joe Sinnott identifies this story as being pencilled by him; In the Matt Baker Checklist by Alberto Beccatini and Jim Vadeboncoeur, Jr. published in Matt Baker: The Art of Glamour (TwoMorrows, 2012) pencils in this story attributed to Matt Baker, one of his last jobs before his death in 1959. Nick Caputo sees traces of both artists and posits that perhaps Sinnott finished a job that Baker started.
