Phillips Curve data for the 1960s and 70s-Unemployment and Inflation rates?

Does anyone know a link that shows statistical data (inflation rates and unemployment rates) for the 60s or 70s. I have seen graphs that outline the Phillips curve for these time periods but I can%26#039;t find any exact numbers...like in 1972 unemployment rate was 4.2 and inflation was 2.1 percent.



Can anyone tell me a link? Thanks

The Fed Reserve database (see link below) has all of the data that you want for the US. For Australia, see (www.abs.gov.au).



For the US, CPI data is at (http://research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/dat... - calculate the growth rate for each observation compared to the same month 12 months earlier to get an inflation rate.



Unemployment rate data is available at (http://research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/dat...
