This is not a card punch. It punches on a wide continues roll of stiff paper. It resembles more modern computer printer paper. The small index- or feeder-holes either side indicates that the information is read line by line, not a a rectangular card. Here a Jaquard card punch in use: look up "Jacquard Lochkarten schlagen NIRA" on Youtube.com. (Link does not work in WP.

I guess the shown punch is used for a more simple dobby loom. 80.212.188.196 15:08, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
