Hi,

I hope this is not seen as a bad post but I have about 200MB of old ASCII pictures
from back in the 60's and early '70's. I used to keep my collection on paper tape but 
in '73 I translated it to an '029 card deck, then in '80 collected all I could find
 from everyone I knew and put it on an IBM mag tape. I have kept this tape for all 
these years hoping I'd find someone that might want it for historical reasons of the 
computing stuff of that age. Maybe this group is the right one? The only problem I have 
now is how to find a 9 track drive to read it? It was written at 6250bpi and 3383 
bytes/record.

Yes a LOT of them are Snoopies, etc, Start treck stuff, the moon in 36 page multistrike 
Line printer art, presidents, etc...ect... 

Anyone with some ideas on what (if anything) I should do with this at this time?
