Co-authors missing

[Emy]

Listing this here as it's potentially a Very Big Job...

Thomas Peckett Prest and James Malcolm Rymer were co-authors of a number of famous 19thC Penny Dreadfuls BUT many of the records only seem to have Prest listed on them.

Some information:
Rymer: "Between 1842 to the 1867 he wrote up to 115 popular novels for the English bookseller and publisher, Edward Lloyd, including the best-sellers Ada the Betrayed, Varney the Vampyre and The String of Pearls. Rymer's novels appeared in England under his own name as well as anagrammatic pseudonyms such as Malcolm J. Errym and Malcolm J. Merry."

Prest: "Thomas Peckett (or Preskett) Prest (probable dates 1810–1859) was a British hack writer, journalist and musician. He was a prolific producer of penny dreadfuls. He is now remembered as the co-creator (with James Malcolm Rymer) of the fictional Sweeney Todd, the 'demon barber' immortalized in his The String of Pearls, as well as the co-author with Rymer of Varney the Vampire. He wrote under pseudonyms including Bos, a takeoff of Charles Dickens' own pen name, Boz. Before joining Edward Lloyd's publishing factory, Prest had made a name for himself as a talented musician and composer."

The cover below indicates that NEITHER name was written on the original covers, so for the sake of ease I suggest that Prest gets first billing.
