What a cool set up! THe old type of computer with card reading. Wow... We often think we are the smart generation, but while watching the science channel I have come to find out differently. Some of the tec stuff we haven't even figured out how they work anymore. Like a calendar timepiece in china that was a huge building that gave perfect accuracy to the calendar and told when to plant and the time of day. The wars there wiped out the people who invented it and they now are trying to figure out the other functions it has.
I am wondering how many machines that could work in tandem before any distortions occurred of the embroidery?

I agree but the photos are fascinating. I didn't know they used punched paper for embroidery. That reminded me of the old stock market ticker tapes (reason why the name of parades in NYC). I owned my Dad's player piano (over 500 piano rolls) but had to give it to a friend when I moved.
