Here’s a fun ngram: an OCR glitch that tracks the rise of Helvetica. books.google.com/ngrams/graph?c…

Edited slightly to go from 1940 to 2000, instead of the default 1800 to 2008.

My favorite version of this was in Russian bootleg Neuromancer, where the Turing organization hunts down rogue dudes named Al.
