Some info here:  http://www.gracyk.com/burr.shtml  ,  and Glenn Longwell's 
excellent pages about Majestic:  http://majesticrecord.com/history.htm

(ps - I see on Glenn's site that Majestic claimed to be cut at 165 tpi, 
while Edison DD were 150 tpi.  So, maybe they won't play on an Edison, 
unless Majestics were really 150, too)
