Ok, now do the effective rates paid.

Better yet, do overall tax burden rather than just income tax.

Everyone loves to get a good ideological circle jerk going over the nominal 1950s rates but the actual tax burden at (various different points on the income spectrum) paints a very, very, different picture.
