While I agree that the font density and the 'E' are the main indicators of the Everybody's variation, I enjoy the minutia of the apostrophes. Sadly, I think apostrophes and similar punctuation marks do not get their just due in a world dominated by letters and numerals. Punctuation marks should unite and reverse this situation.
Knowing that they were distributed in groups of twenty is a great addition to the knowledge base on this. Seems strange that they might have been printed in that small of a grouping each week. However if they weren’t sure how the interest would follow over the weeks it makes sense that they printed often and only as many as they thought necessary. That could explain why there might be as many as 10 different apostrophe types.
