Like "Leisure Suit Larry" is a dated name.<br /> I added one inking credit on Goldberg - one of the Bill Everett inked jobs- I admit that I got that credit from a contemporary fanzine of the time (and luckily it looked like Everett too). Hmm, as Jon D'Agostino was lettering for Marvel in the early 60s, wonder if he inked there as well? For art-spotting on Tippy, it's been said that many of the artists would try to hide their styles (pencilers would ink, etc) to add doubt from the frowning and firing eyes of the Archie management. <br />SangorShophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17650888644317638942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1969619411845920903.post-15754353073767910682014-06-13T14:07:08.237-04:002014-06-13T14:07:08.237-04:00And I forgot to mention Sol B.And I forgot to mention Sol B.Nick Caputohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05096100224095280865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1969619411845920903.post-71741971996124635612014-06-13T12:35:44.483-04:002014-06-13T12:35:44.483-04:00Dan DeCarlo did pencil a story, "Runaway Roma...Dan DeCarlo did pencil a story, "Runaway Romance," in TIPPY 1.<br /><br />Britt, I wonder too why Tippy was retitled Vicki.

I've identified a number of stories over the years and provided credits for the GCD.

I've gathered that Stan Goldberg had inkers much more often than not at Marvel, ones who went unsigned and uncredited even after the fuller credits had taken hold on the adventure books.Martin OHearnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14756078371130519063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1969619411845920903.post-26707639611863409792014-06-12T16:44:44.461-04:002014-06-12T16:44:44.461-04:00Martin,
