I don't think that playing DDs is what this stylus was intended to
do. To be effective for playing vertical cut discs with a lateral
pickup, the stylus assembly has to have the tip considerably offset to
the side relative to the line of the shank. This allows the assembly to
be a lever that translates vertical motion to lateral motion. This
stylus looks like an early jeweled tip intended for lateral pickups or
reproducers.

Could the stylus in the attached image be for an Edison C-4 to allow
it to play Diamond Discs?
