Strictly speaking we cannot regard books by Judge as a "source"
teaching. They are rather an interpretation of HPB teaching with
all flaws which may by characteristic for other interpreters 
mentioned.
For example, in "Ocean of theosophy" he questions the growth of
world population which is now the obvious fact for everyone. Moreover, 
he makes a conclusion that because Chinese are 4th race people they
are dying out, while now we see quite the reverse. Such statements,
being obviously erroneous, create bad publicity for theosophy, 
probably even more than claimings about life on Mars, and if we regard 
them as "original teachings of theosophy" it would mean that theosophy 
in its core contains such a nonsense.
