I cannot believe that, in the early 1900s, records designed to be played on a cranked phono would be priced anywhere near $500 each. That figure sounds, to me, a lot more like the cost of a good console wind-up phono of the period. There are photos of such a unit in this thread; it looks almost like a 1950s-'60s Magnavox or other make console radio-phonograph. A dead giveaway that it's just a record player, of course, is the crank on the side of the cabinet.
