Commentary

  • This chart is a bit of a mess because (as far as I can tell) ISFDB doesn't record the year the Retro Hugos apply to, just the year they were awarded, which could be 50, 75 or 100 years difference. It wouldn't be impossible to either (a) have some hard-coded hacks with the "real" years and/or (b) use the first publication date of the nominated books to work out the "real" year, but right now this isn't something I'm interested in doing.
  • The Sword in the Stone in 2014/1939 is probably under-reported, as it appears in the omnibus The Once and Future King, which has just under 90k ratings as of May 2019. This is the publication which provides the ratings count for The Ill-Made Knight in 2016/1941, as seemingly no stand-alone edition of that volume with an ISBN has ever been published, and so these charts have to fall back onto the omnibus edition in the absence of any other option.
