Summary[edit]

Description
English: Cardboard box for punch cards. The new cards were sold in these boxes. These boxes were also used to store the punch cards of the programs. The long programs with some thousands of lines of code needed the same number of punched cards. They had to be put in the card reader in the right sort order.
Français : Boîte en carton pour cartes perforées. Les cartes vierges étaient livrées dans ces boites qui étaient aussi utilisées pour stocker les programmes avec les cartes perforées. De gros programmes de quelques milliers de lignes de programme se traduisaient par autant de cartes stockées dans ces boites. Elles devaient être entrées dans le lecteur en respectant leur ordre de classement.
