Sara, here's a single trigger advertisement from a June 1912 issue of the American Field. These early AF's usually have one Lefever advert per issue.

I look forward to meeting you at the Northeast SxS.

The magazine National Sportsman numbered the pages of all twelve Issues in a Volume from page 1 in Issue 1 to the last page in Issue 12. Here are a couple of A.H. Fox Gun Co. ads from 1912 --

It Drops the Game, September 1912.JPG

Dead Calls the Referee, October 1912.JPG

American Field did the same for their actual text pages but in each Issue the advertising was mostly on pages numbered with Roman Numerals I to VIII.

Thanks for that information! I was wondering about that too!

Frank,
I'll be there all day Friday and Saturday, probably around the Lefever tables or out shooting. Looking forward to meeting you too.

Well, I finally found time to get the page to the framer on Monday. I was shocked when I got the call that it was ready today! I love how it turned out. He also put a copy of the other side of the page on the back of the frame, for future reference. Pardon my poor photos, they don't do it justice (and sorry for them being sideways; not sure how to fix that on here).
