  I like this one even better: http://www.economics-charts.com/cpi/cpi-1800-2005.html http://www.economics-charts.com/cpi/cpi-1800-2005.html First, it goes back to 1800; second, it's from the Fed itself, which means it's doubly entertaining. For example, I love this little note in the "description and comments" section: Notice how the peaks in inflation over the last 200 years have coincided with major wars. But don't notice at all how there was, on average, no inflation until after the Fed was created, but since then it's skyrocketed. No, these aren't the droids you're looking for.
