Beck, Pete Costanza, Marc Swayze, Will Lieberson, Otto Binder, Rod Reed, Ginny Provisiero, and more, with behind-the-scenes looks at how the company operated from its 1940 beginnings until ceasing publication in 1953 in the wake of a legal battle with the owners of Superman.

Fawcett City Companion,

This review is from: Fawcett Companion: The Best of FCA (Fawcett Collectors of America) (Paperback)
Book provides a great deal of information on the people who worked at Fawcett Comics, but little information on the characters they created.
