Jack Kirby: Young Love #19 - March 1951

Jack Kirby Young Love
Mar. 1951: Young Love #19

Is that a self-portrait on the cover? Well, here's a photo of Kirby I found online that's purported to be from around 1950 (published in The Art of Jack Kirby, 1992).

Kirby's likely  posing for one of those photo-comic book covers, or for reference, etc.
