If 'card image' is defined as FB-80, then yes it is, but the data is full of 
control info used to rebuild the PDS members. If 'card image' means literally a 
one for one representation of the original data, then no. Frankly I had lost 
track of what OP needed.

But not the original card images. I thought there are control data at the 
beginning of each record which staggers the original card images progressively 
through the dataset.
