Well my wife used to drive an Olivetti accounting machine circa 1975.
I think it was a P503 or something like that.
That had magnetic cards plus magnetic stripes (bits of recording tape) stuck
to the account record cards.
I'll ask her what she remembers.
Regards

Anyone have any more information on the magnetic card and its reader?
