How common were patent leather shoes during the early part of the 20th Century (1900s-1940s)?

I don't think they were very common at all during the day, but did form part of the dress code for black and white tie. So about as often as those orders of dress were used.

"I have a pair of black and white patent leather Spectators, however I don't wear them often, any more as since all these dancing shows have sprung up on the television people are constantly asking one if one is a Dancer"
