This postcard is part of our exclusive series created from punch card documents uncovered in the dusty vaults of the U.S. National Archives (NARA). Once used to power early computers and recordkeeping systems, these fragile cards sat untouched for decades — until now.

We've digitally restored and preserved these relics of bureaucratic history, transforming them into collectible postcards that celebrate a lost analog world. Printed on heavyweight 300g glossy stock in the DIN A6 format (4.1 x 5.8 inches), each card is a slice of mid-century government tech — delivered to your door.

Each card features our signature NARA design. The full story behind the original image is included in this listing.

This postcard features a historical image of a crew from the 646th Bomb Squadron, 410th Bomb Group, posing beside a Douglas A-20 Havoc aircraft. The photograph was taken at a 9th Air Force base in France. The crew is likely part of the Allied forces during World War II, given the context of the 9th Air Force and the A-20 Havoc, a type of attack aircraft used during the war. The image provides a glimpse into the lives of the airmen who operated these aircraft, highlighting their role in the war effort.
