Note: Indicia publisher appears to only have been used for Buster Bear, Egbert and Marmaduke Mouse.

Note: The first indicia publisher of what would become Quality, still in use during the final month of Quality's existence (cover dates December 1956). Contrary to what is often reported, there is no evidence that Harry "A" Chesler was ever an owner of this company or in any way a "pre-Quality" publisher. He is not mentioned anywhere in Feature Funnies #1 or #2, and the earliest available statement of ownership (from #16) lists Everett M. Arnold, Frank J. Markey, Henry P. Martin, Jr. and Frank J. Murphy as co-owners. Above information assembled by Henry Andrews from his collection and information at www.goldenagecomics.co.uk and www.bipcomics.com.

Note: Direct successor to Comic Magazines, Inc.

Note: Directly followed by Comic Magazines (with no ", Inc.")

Note: Followed Everett M. Arnold as the listed publisher of Smash Comics (The "Everett M. Arnold" form of the publisher's name returned in 1950 on other titles).

Note: Actual years of use 1939; 1946-1950 1939 usage continued as "E. M. Arnold" Address of publication [1939]: 1213 W. 3rd St., Cleveland, Ohio. No other 1939 addresses given.

Note: Publications bore text such as "This book has been manufactured under wartime conditions in full compliance with all orders and regulations of the War Production Board, in particular 1.245 by Vital Publications, Inc. New York", sometimes continuing "from material prepared and supplied by Comic Magazines". Comic Magazines was, of course, one of Quality's proper publishing companies. Vital Publications, Inc. began publishing their own line of comics after the end of the WW2 paper allotment.
