The most unusual game program I've ever seen

And I've seen hundreds.

I recently acquired this gem. It's from Hartford '94, and is in absolutely pristine condition. The owner had recorded the results and point scoring in a hand which is so precise, it almost looks like it was typeset. Alignment is perfect, cross-outs are done with ruled lines. It's not done with a stencil, 'cause the characters aren't identical, just close.

This wasn't done by someone scribbling at his seat during the performance. Nor is it the fronton's archival copy. I've seen a bunch of those, too, and there's no way they would spend the time to do this.

What do you make of it?
