Gentlemen ... gentlemen ...
These 79' OPC cards were not cut with wires! They were cut using a slitter machine - and a very old one! Ten sheets were inserted at a time and the ones at the bottom got the roughest edges.

I'd be suspicious of one WITHOUT a rough cut.

Interesting. Always heard wires and when they were dull you got rough cut.

Was always told wire, and possibly an aircraft type quality wire.

I have pictures of the employees putting sheets through the slitter machine. I have lots of other pictures of the O-Pee-Chee plant as well. I can tell you right now that there were no aircraft wires in there.
And no, I cannot post these pictures on a public forum. They were sent to me by a Canadian researcher and he wouldn't be pleased if I did this.
