I think these were erroneous identifications by the Inducks indexers. Most
of the PDL cases from the 70s were indexed by the same person. I think he
mistakenly attributed a specific art style to PDL, while it was someone
else.
Anyway, the stories in Inducks from before 1963 have been thorougly checked,
so a PDL credit is quite certain. After that, we mostly rely on art
recognition.
Thanks for spotting this Inducks error!
