Try the international monetary fund data base. I am not sure how far back they go.

Google "Federal Reserve" and "CPI index"
The CPI index tracks change in consumer prices by pricing a standard set of items each month over time. You have probably heard of the economic illustration of "bag of groceries" or something like that. By keeping a history of what that bag of the same items costs each month, you have a measure of inflation.

I like the Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED) Data. It has a boat load of downloadable data.
