I am looking for the history of a journal called "Printer's Ink."?
What I want to know is the start date of publication and the final date of publication. I do know it was started by George Rowell. Please provide citations. I cannot find the information.

Few American books were published on the "how to" of advertising until the 1880s. Then several types of publications began to appear: pamphlets or books that promoted the services of individual agencies; instructional books on how to do the work of advertising; and professional journals. One of the earliest and most successful among the journals was Printers' Ink, founded in 1888 by George P. Rowell.
Rowell retired in 1905, but Printer's Ink is still published.

What an obscure question.
Here's is a scanned in copy of volume 121 # published in 1922 which places the start date at 1801.
