Certainly Jim Mooney never signed a Simon and Kirby piece but not all artists did. I am not familiar with Mooney’s style but thanks for the suggestion I’ll have to check it out sometime.

Frankly I am not that familiar with his style, either as a penciler or an inker. Was he active this early? The romance story does not look like Infantino's earlier stuff but I have not followed Infantino's style after he last worked for Simon and Kirby (Charlie Chan). Interesting comment about Coletta.

Working from the scans you provide, I'd say that the first unidentified artist has Vince Coletta's look al over it. That doesn't say much, as he worked with different pencililers in his own 'studio'. The second unknown has a dc-ish look to it. I don't have those issues but in my notes I have a possible Stallman appearing around that time. Those notes are three years old, though. The third unknown looks like Infantino to me. But I agree with you that the woman looks swiped and I don't think Infantino used a lot of swipes. Happy New Year!
