   This is a card from a Model 29. It has inked characters along the top,   
   so you could read the ASCII character equivalent of the 12 row Hollerith punch.

   Not all card schemes, were that friendly.   
      
   You could compare the inked characters on the card, to your 132 column line   
   printer output.
