I was looking at the gorilla on the cover of Wonder Comics #2. Typical weekend amusement.

While viewing said gorilla, his right hand caught my attention. It looked like someone had scribbled some letters around the knuckle creases. At first, I was concerned that my recent purchase had some kid's handwriting on it. But looking at other copies online, the same scribbles could be seen. So this is part of the artwork.

Perhaps I'm imagining things, but it seems like the scribbles spell out L-E-F. Or possibly, L-K-F. This of course is the initials of Mr. Louis K. Fine.  Is it possible that he sneaked in his initials on his very first comic book cover??

That is a heck of an observation you have quite the eye and I would wager definitely not out of the realm of possibility!! Cool stuff!!
