Disclose Notes: The cover credits for Young Allies #14 and #15 are often swapped, starting from a typo in Overstreet that noted "Brodsky c-15" and "Schomburg c5-13, 16-19". 14 is unaccounted for and it is obvious that is not Schomburg's art (particularly in how Bucky is drawn). Meanwhile, 15 has all the hallmarks of a frenetic Schomburg cover.

In the Gerber Photo-Journal, Schomburg is credited for #6-#16 with the exception of #14. However, the images for #14 and #15 are mistakenly switched, which could also be the source of the swapped cover credits.
