Ask all_things_comics on ebay. They're doing a good job of destroying books on a weekly basis. 

Sorry I know it wasn't quite the answer you were looking for.

no matter how many books are destroyed, deliberately, or by accident- there are 3 copies of Trencher and Brigade to take it's place....

I think Youngblood is like hydra-destroy one and 2 take its place.

Friend of mine who’s an antique dealer lost his warehouse in a fire last year, about 100 grand worth of funny books turned to ashes. He had more value in antiques lost, but it’s the comics that made me sad.

I think we all know that 63% of all statistics are made up and of those only 47% are believed to be true by 76% of the general population.

I think the number destroyed would vary from year to year and impossible know accurately.  I did hear a story of a pretty big collector/dealer that had his collection of high grade gold and silver books stored in a shed that caught on fire and everything was lost.  I heard that pushed him out of collecting.

I heard that pushed him out of his mind, too!

Here's one I can absolutely confirm!
