The Original Artwork:

"As near as I can tell, one artist would lay out the page, usually either Paul Cassidy or Wayne Boring, sometimes Shuster, then another would clean it up and the inking would often be split between the main figures and the backgrounds.  Then on the next page, everybody would switch.  The end result was usually a mess." more info at Bob's site

"Page 12 looks like Wayne Boring, I'm not sure who his assistants were. The people around the shop at this time included Paul Cassidy and Wayne Boring who were doing most of the pencilling, John Sikela, Don Kamisarow, maybe Ed Dobrotka and Leo Nowak.  Leo claimed to have worked on this story, so he has to be considered.  I think I notice some of his inking on the Superman figures."

- Bob Hughes, who is currently working on a more detailed breakdown and analysis
