Records were still a novelty in 1920. Recording techniques were crude. A finished recording sounded like it was being played over the phone. What sticks out the most, however, is the price. 69 cents for a record doesn't seem like much, but when you adjust for inflation, it comes out to $30.22 for one record. $15.11 per song. The "low" prices in vintage advertisements can be deceiving.
