Woolfolk Records 1947/10

Back to the William Woolfolk records—Marc Svensson, who scanned the pages of Woolfolk's sales notebook thanks to Donna Woolfolk, has consolidated his scans, and so now I can fill in the years that I had skipped, from the late '40s and early '50s. Click the Woolfolk Records label below to see all the previous entries.

Fawcett, Quality, and Timely were the writer's publishers this month. The true crime story I can't track down was paid at the same rate as the Human Torch stories, so might be in a Timely comic.

Bold indicates my additions (Woolfolk didn't enter the publication data of the stories, which is our interest now). Possibly the Timely editors saw the writing on the wall (by 1949 they'd stop publishing the superheroes) and started adjusting scripts to fit any upcoming slots—not only cutting script pages but reworking characters into others. Woolfolk wrote the additional 3 pages of the Kid Eternity script next month.
