Phillipp, I'm sure you're aware that there are both ANSI and ISO 
standards available for punched cards.  Sadly, I don't have a copy of 
the X3.11 standard, but if I did, I'd send it to you.

150,000 cards is what, 75 boxes?  Heck, that's not that much.  I 
probably had at least 50 in my office at one point...
