OK, Before Wayne slams the door on this one...

The Old Man was a newbie once, too. (and he may very well not have printed
or designed the cards he used). They may well have been a generic design.

Another historical perspective that goes back 60 years before those old QSL
cards can be found here:

"History" tends to change with time. Those who chronicle it often put their
own perspective on things. This is natural, as we see through the lens of
our own experiences.

The fact is, we all tend to go with what we were taught. The same goes for
those who came before us. The same will go for those who learn from us.
