This is a little long, so my apologies in advance. One point to make here about many of the dealers who post to MoPo is that they are abiding by the long-standing request to add FA or FS to their subject line. (One Mexican lobby card dealer does not add FA or FS to his posts, but you can't

Decent chance the design was by Albert Kallis, who was art director at AIP at that time. Believe he had overall responsibility for print output, though that said, don't believe he was necessarily the only art director. Some he'd illustrate himself, or assign to artists like Brown, (who
