If we go by his track record before and after this interregnum, I'd guess that during it Woolfolk wrote all the Ibis stories in Whiz 110-124 and close to all of the Wild Bill Pecos stories in The Westerner 21-27; moreover, that he had stories in every issue of Wanted 21-26. By this point he's selling Captain Marvel Jr. scripts every month.
UPDATE: Since posting, I found which issue the Rocky Lane story was published in.

Woolfolk's writing this Marvel Family script happens to fall on the end of the month; he begins February writing its final chapter.
When did Woolfolk start working for DC? The Grand Comics Database has DC Woolfolk credits earlier than 1950 (some of them coming from you).
ReplyDeleteAfter one Wonder Woman in 1948 (it's on Julius Schwartz's records of payments for his and Robert Kanigher's books), Woolfolk's stories at DC begin with April 1953 issues. When I first attributed Superman and Batman stories, I found a number of Woolfolk's correctly, as his records have shown, but erred on the side of crediting him with some by other writers. The GCD will want to clean out the driftwood when these blog entries get to that point, but yes, DC stories other than that WW before '53 are false positives.
