There is something odd about this persons numbers. It’s the 80s and on occasion the number zero is written with a slash through it, but most of the time not.

There is something odd about this persons numbers. It’s the 80s and on occasion the number zero is written with a slash through it, but most of the time not. I’m not sure there was a prevalence to distinguish 0s from Os in type back then.
Maybe it was some one else later who wrote that.
