Default Magnetic stripe tickets

Again as mentioned elsewhere in the thread, the whole of the back of
the ticket was a magnetic surface. However these tickets were much
smaller than the current tube tickets.


Same size as a 'proper' Edmondson ticket IIRC


No, longer than an Edmondson, I'm sure. I have examples somewhere here.


On thinner card, too. Somewhere I've got one that was issued by a
pre-deployment demonstration system they installed at the Science
Museum. I think Clive might have one of those, too.
