I have some old WARDS catalogs from the 1920s and
1930s, if you think those prices are low, you should
see these!
for example, from a July, 1921 price list:
Ballinoo Australia, 2,278 grams $150.00
Canyon City Colorado, 321 grams $50.00
Seelasgen Germany, 809 grams $100.00
Steinbach Germany, 198 grams $67.50.
Crab Orchard mesosiderite 1023 grams $110.00
Morristown mesosiderite 307 grams $60.00

Cumberland Falls, complete stone, 135 grams $55.00
Holbrook 495 grams $30.00
Junvinas eucrite with crust 45 grams $24.00
Lundsgard Sweden, 94 gram complete stone $94.00

Mocs, complete stone 179 grams $20.00
Richardton complete stone 2943 grams $265.00
Trenzano Italy, 18 grams with crust $12.00

Now those were the good old days, of course, a new car
back then cost like $1000.00!
