Notes: Jerry Bails suggested comparing the work of Leslie Ross with that of R. L. Ross.

Bails' Who's Who confuses Leslie Ross with Russell Ross who was the artist for the Lena Pry (The McNaught Syndicate) Sunday comic strip topper for the Jane Arden Sunday comic strip. The Who's Who listed Leslie Ross as working on the feature for Quality Comics in 1937 in error.
