Not quite true,

With Sawyers Pollen Identification , you had the option of buying it with or
without the set of punched cards. His Honey Identification never had any
cards.

Pollen identification is now out of print, so the chance of getting cards is
diminished even more.

Pollen identification carried details of more pollens than Honey
identification does, but Honey identification does more on some of the more
common foreign ( non Anglo-Celtic Archipelago) pollens.

Also these books go only into basic identification using a microscope up
X400, as my paleontologist friends keep telling me you really need to go to
X1000 or higher for definitive analysis.

I would suggest that you try the Botany department of your nearest
University who might be both able and willing to help you.

 They come with a set of punched cards that are
easily transferred to a database if you are keen enough and have the skills.
