Panelologist 
Vol.2, Nos.7-8
An Abridged Index to
All-Star Comics.

This historic work of comic fandom was published by Dr Jerry Bails in 1969.   It does not contain a copyright notice, nor publishing details.

This six page mimeo-ed publication was a revised edition of the first fanzine index of the Golden Age adventures of the JSA in All-Star Comics #3 - #57.  The index cost 25c and it contained:

The Official Roll Call of the JSA;
The Editors, Writers, and Artists of All-Star Comics;
and, The Adventures of the Justice Society of America;
I wrote to Jerry Bails to seek some information on this publication - I was un-sure about the cover artist.  He was only to happy to reply...
The Index to All-Star Comics (Panelologist v.2 #7-8) has a cover drawn by me but containing swipes of characters from various issues of All-Star Comics. Lots of the figures are from # 8 and #24.  One or two of the figures (GL for sure) were originals when I couldn't find an appropriate model.  The same cover appeared on the earlier editions of this index.

This material was first published in THE AUTHORIATIVE INDEX TO ALL-STAR COMICS in the early 1960s.  I have a copy of the revised 1965 edition in my hands.  Notice the correct title.  The first edition was in January, 1962 according to the listing I published in THE GUIDEBOOK TO COMICS FANDOM (Sum/65).  99% of all artists were identified in the very first edition.

I forgot that I had published the A-S Index again as part of my PANELOLOGIST series.  That's what you seem to have.  It may be a shortened version.  I don't recall.

I purchased my copy off eBay in 1999 [and was THRILLED to acquire it!]

A further revision of this article was published in Issue #36 of Near Mint.

Jerry informed me that:

The Panelologist v.2 #5-6 (or whatever numbering is correct) contains a cover made with an electric memeograph stencil of a panel of original art in my collection.  The art is by Mike Sekowsky (pencils) and Bernard Sachs (inks) from the first JLA-JSA crossover.  Electric stencil machines were capable of making the best copies short of going to photo-offset.
