Pencils: Sheldon Moldoff; Mike Sekowsky (see notes)

Inks: Sheldon Moldoff; Christopher Rule (see notes)

Notes: This appears to be a Moldoff story that was given to Sekowsky to "save" by redrawing the lead male character in several panels and the main female's face in many others. Chris Rule inked all of Sekowsky's "corrections". A bizarre combination of styles, often in the same panel.
