Pete Constanza is not a ghost name for Schaffenberger. Schaffenberger used a ghost name, Lou Wahl, on his ACG work. Costanza, along with Schaffenberger, both were Captain Marvel artists at Fawcett. At DC, Schaffenberger was the main artist on Lois Lane and Costanza did a lot of Jimmy Olsen issues. The cover figure shown here does look a lot like Schaffenberger's work although the rest of the cover does not. Perhaps Costanza was imitating Schaffenberger, or perhaps Schaffenberger helped Costanza with the cover. The interior page shown here looks nothing like Schaffenberger's work.
