Alister Cameron is asking people to dig up the oldest business card they can lay their hands on, and post a photo of it. The oldest example I could find is this card from my web design days during the dot-com boom, when I was working for (the sadly now defunct) Sydney design studio, 110 Design. A photo of my ...
