Graph depicting distribution of consumer units ( percent of aggregate income) by size of family personal income in 1950. The graph depicts a roughly bell-shaped curve, with a spike in the top 5% of earning families, but unlike today the top 5% have only 20% of the income. The bottom 95% make a little under 80% of the income.
