An Illustrated History is the second North American album released by Japanese pop group Puffy AmiYumi. It was released on May 21, 2002. (See 2002 in music).

The album consists of a compilation of Puffy's greatest hits in Japan since their debut, albeit in English lyrics. At least one song from each of Puffy's pre-2022 Japanese album releases were included, with the exception of solosolo. Notably, it included the whole of the Atarashii Hibi single, but without the karaoke song.

There is also a bonus movie of 'Boogie-Woogie No.5' able to be seen on a QuickTime Player when placed into a computer.
