Gosh, Brian, I am still playing dominoes on a miniature golf course. No time left for stargazing.
However I do have another theory. I am convinced that the holes would align perfectly with the gunshot holes in the walls of the Little Bohemia Lodge from the Dillinger shoot out. The first picture is a period picture of the Lodge in 1933 consistent with the probable timeline of the Weaver card's provenance.  The second picture shows the pattern of holes in a small portion of the dining room, where the Weaver card undoubtedly dined.  And the third picture shows the bathroom where the owner of the Weaver card was soaking it to remove the gunpowder burns from the card.  It's a miracle that the card survived at all.

Oh, close so close, but I bought the card (yep, couldn't resist) so that the next time I go to the optometrist I can tell them no thanks, I brought my own eye test device.

You've pointed us toward that card before, Brian. I always figured you secretly wanted to own it and am glad you won-- now you have your Dream Weaver.
