Note: According to Nicky Wheeler-Nicholson, the bankruptcy proceedings for her grandfather's companies indicate that there was never an actual "More Fun, Inc." company, only "More Fun Magazine, Inc." Given that the issues listing "More Fun, Inc." as the publisher continued to list "More Fun Magazine, Inc." as the copyright holder, "More Fun, Inc." is clearly just a (likely accidental) shortening of the proper company name. The two issues prior to those listing "More Fun, Inc." as publisher listed "More Fun Magazine, Inc." as both publisher and copyright holder.
