One of my favortie Silver Age books. I've had my raw copy for over 20 years and still take it out and read it on occasion. Congrats on owning a great book!

I think it's interesting that they used the alchemy symbols for Gold, Iron, Mercury and Tin, but not for Lead and Platinum. Instead they just used "L" and "P". It made no sense to me as a kid and it still doesn't now. I always thought the use of the alchemy symbols was a clever device for the characters. If I can find the correct symbols for Lead and Platinum I'll try and post them. If anyone thinks they know why DC did what they did with the symbols, fire away.
