Sam gave a link saying the Nasdaq cranked up L2 in 1983. Doubtful the price was cheap for retail.

I suppose it would have been possible--after all, once upon a time some private individuals owned ticker tape machines--but it wasn't practical until the internet became widely available.

These links will be of some help to fhe poster who asked the original question:

But most people who wanted quotes just used newspapers.
