As for cartridges, you might take a look at Grado. There is the risk of hum, but it seems like many 78 fans are now using Grado cartridges--mainly, I think, because they make a variety of stylus sizes. They also make a special mono LP cartridge.
The Shure, however, has a lower price. However, I'm under the impression that they don't make a mono LP stylus that fits that body.
I've been doing research on 78s recently, too, and there seems to be some information on Audio Asylum.
