    A Table showing prices from the late 1800;s
    Hi all,

    I was wondering if anyone knew of a website that shows a table that compares the price of everyday items (bread, milk) between the late 1800's and now. I am doing a project with my math class based on the TV show Kid Nation and I need one.

    I have tried numerous Google searches, but have come up empty.

    Thanks!

    I don't know if this is exactly what you'r elooking for, but there are a few links on this page that might help. It DOES say that "The Value of A Dollar: Prices and Incomes in the United States" are available in a lot of libraries and have good information in them. Not a website, but it could help.
