From 1929 to 1961, the Inland Printer ran a regular “Typographic Scoreboard” column tallying up the typefaces used on full-page ads in major magazines such as “The Saturday Evening Post“ & “Vogue”. The author (uncredited in early editions) was J. L. Frazier, one of the 20th century’s best chroniclers of type history.

We (or someone?) should put this data into graphical form showing how typefaces rose and fell in popularity over those 30 years.
