Question: How did these banking crises affect their stock markets?

I'm trying to find out how much stock prices fell in their respective stock markets during three of the following "Big Five" financial crises: Spain(c.1977), Norway(c.1987), Finland(c.1991). Harvard's Rogoff claims a 20% average decline but this seems wrong given that the declines in the other Big Two crises, Japan and Sweden alone were 80% and 45% respectively.

Not an exact answer, but these end-of month prices (check out the pdf file) might help.
