Cards recording details on eyesight, strength, breathing power, head dimensions, height, weight, and span of arms. Each has 'Cambridge Philosophical Society' as heading on the other side, and below a table with spaces for name, college, birthplace, date of birth, and origin; however, none of the cards have these completed, with only a number at top right filled in.
