Peter, you may want to go to eBay and/or Amazon and price punch cards. You
may be able to make a buck or two on those in your attic. I looked at this
a while ago - thought I might want to use some old ones for notepads and
bookmarks, and found they're now considered antique arcana. I'm looking
now, and the cheapest I see off-hand on eBay is a pack of 50 for $12. More
common is about 50 cents per card. And here's one ("Vintage IBM punch card
Hollerith PUNCHED PRINTED used IBM mainframe"), a lot of 30 for which he's
asking $1995 (no decimal point). I'm sure it'll still be there when you go
there to look incredulously :).
Oh, wait, here's a cheaper one: Ten thousand cards for the low, low price
of $1650 (plus 127.25 shipping). You can break them up and sell them in
lots of 100 for $40 each and make a killing.

Sorry, I don't have any actual JCL on physical punched cards any more.
Somewhere in the attic I may have a box or two of blank ones, but nothing
with punches.

....Does anynone have JCL statements on punched cards? I would like to
get/download some images of JOB, EXEC, and DD statements on punched cards. I
have a lot of card pictures, but none with JCL.
