In a book I have called "
Fifty Years And Only One Grey Hare', celebrating 50 yrs of Bugs Bunny, Chuck Jones, chief animator for Warner Bros(and one of my childhood heroes) says the reason why three fingers were used on cartoons was so the animators, who in those days had to draw all the pictures by hand, could complete their work faster. The less fingers to draw the faster they went and it was easy to trace and test-which makes sense.
