Indexer Notes
The name 'JOHN TARTAGLIONE' appears on the splash page at a 90 degree orientation to the page, but does not appear to be rendered directly by any drawing/writing instrument (unlike the job number where none of the '9's are perfect copies of the others). Rather it appears that the panel was labeled with his name using some kind of typeset process (like a very tiny headline might look for a newspaper or magazine article).
This is how Tartaglione signed his work for a period. It's a stamp.
