Does anyone know if this type of ad placement occured in other Prize/Crestwood publications?

Got your Ditko book, Blake - loved it.<br /><br />Nick, could a late editorial decision (not a code one) to delete an offending panel have resulted in this hastily pasted-on ad? It doesn't seem the sort of thing that would be done if it could've been avoided.

The Comics Code Authority didn't exist until Oct '54, so this story would have been drawn up to a year before that.<br /><br />Nick, sorry but the Bill Everett Archives vol. 2 going to the printers this week prevented my promised blog post, but I am aiming for this weekend (and I can add more to alterations on this story too).Blake Bellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14257271643625561722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2089733759263636022.post-67364516980771459772013-05-10T06:22:51.809-04:002013-05-10T06:22:51.809-04:00Regarding that 'pimple ad' in the final pa...Regarding that 'pimple ad' in the final panel, Nick, do you think the code objected to a panel at the last moment with no time to have it redrawn, necessitating drastic action, or was it added simply for commercial reasons?
