I see in one of Boland's books that B. Oldman was a pen name (pseudonym) of B. Taylor. There are dozens of pen names used in checkers publications. I would like to see lists of those pen names that can be identified with real names and those pen names that cannot (or are uncertain). Let me start off by listing a few that I cannot identify:

A. B. C.
Fifer
Fifer Jr.
Free Lance
Ishmael
Lentonian
Midas
X. Y. Z.
