Yes, but.  Richard Bergeron did not type the stencils for WARHOON -- any of
the later '60s issues through #28 (1980 -- but there were only one or two
issues published in the '70s).  His secretary typed them.  Maybe, with #28,
several secretaries.  That may explain the very simple layouts -- from a
man who did commercial and fine art for a living.

As far as I know, Don Miller typed all his own stencils.
