I have seen for sale printed sheets giving the prices for petrol, bread, cigarettes, a house, the average wage etc, on a particular date, eg wedding, birth etc. I asked if they did all dates but they only do the last 100 years, the information is all collected from the times so i was told. HOW can i get this info myself, preferably via the computer. I'd like to get one per generation to see the prices change. Or better still a company that would be able to do it for me. Many thanks, Joan
