Bitsavers uploaded the manual for the 024/026 keypunch.
http://bitsavers.org/pdf/ibm/punchedCard/Keypunch/024-026/A2 4-0520-3_24_26_Card_Punch_Reference_Manual_Oct1965.pdf

The manual includes the program drum card and other
suggestions for efficient operation.

At some point, most of us probably encountered one of these
machines.

These machines were introduced in the late 1940s. They
had that heavy 'streamlined' look popular at the time.
After the 'geometric' look came out in the late 1950s
the machines looked very dated.
