I need chart or figure which illustrates growth in global foreign
trade for at least last 12 years (up to 50 is fine).  I need to be
able to provide a full academic citation for this chart (author,
document it is in, url, publisher (if there is one), date published,
page number if appropriate.  I have a garbled figure from the
International Monetary Fund that show the annual growth rate of
foreign trade over 12 years....but can't find the source information.

I need the actual chart, not just the data.  Also need more specific
info that a source as the World Trade Organization.  Thanks for
trying.  This is certainly in the right direction.
