Magazine Work

This is some of his magazine work that I know of, which gives a general picture of how he made a living as an illustrator and writer in his early career. I am always looking for more examples of his work, and often discover things for the first time on eBay, especially when a seller is good enough to list all the stories and illustrators in a piece of ephemera. I don't necessarily own everything listed below -- eBay is a fickle mistress! Want to help identify more of his work? Check this list that I extracted from his account books from 1933-1950.
