Indexer Notes

Cataldo is credited only on ink by Jerry Bails' Who's Who, but the layout of figure movement, pointed hat brims in sideview and horses are all quite identical to his signed story "Lefty Jim-U.S. Marshal" in Crown Comics #16. He may have done it all. Compare the rather stiff movement of figures, and the horses.
