In addition to the initials, almost everything made has code numbers written beside or below; these index into a group account at insight-live.com where all details, since the 1980s, are recorded. Sometimes the numbers simply are the name of a production (e.g. top right is M325). Often, the numbers were for tests being done (e.g. the "L4131" top left). Sometimes a code number spreads across two lines (e.g. lower left is actually "P6842"). The monogram on the lower right is pre-2000, it was incised using a Kemper trimming tool.
