I am currently the high bidder on this Heritage Auctions item. With all three Harvey Comics leading characters — Richie Rich, Casper, and Wendy — together in the first panel of a 5-page story, how could I resist?
The drawings were by a Harvey Comics mainstay, Warren Kremer. The clean, simple lines, as required for Harvey’s humor titles, contrast with the publisher’s Fifties horror comics, as seen in these examples.
This unpublished cover is also attributed to Kremer, demonstrating his masterful brushwork that’s anything but simple.
I’d say this one appears more likely to be the work of Lee Elias.
