The final four issues of this series are all 196-pages long, with a randomized selection of Fawcett comics published during the year; these were stripped of their covers, trimmed and rebound under a new cover; they are notable for having a velvet effect applied to the covers. On #4 and #6 it's applied to the title and Santa Claus's costume; It's present on the Christmas tree of #5 and applied to the Christmas stocking held by Captain Marvel on #7, the final issue. Information on Fawcett Comics' annual sales of Xmas Comics from 1941 to the 1949 is taken from the book "Juvenile Delinquency" (from 1950).
