Disclose Notes: When the newspaper strips had been used up as reprints in the comic book, the new stories were done by ghost artists, and this must be John Hampton. In Jerry Bails' Who's Who he is credited to Red Ryder in 1947-49, and the artwork is similar to his signed work at The Kiyotee Kids in #40.
