I can't read the card very well, but I'm pretty sure it's:

The writing on the card's map is mostly illegible anyway. It's possible to make out 'mountains' and 'lake', cant read the rest even on the original card. Dunno

Maybe there will be a link to him in the story arc-there have been two cards about colour blindness as well.

Actually, the answer to *that* card was
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Writings

Also in 1921 a book of his was published called Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus. The name of the card is Traces. I know some people already know, but hey... just saying :p

 Re: Writings

I know this was solved a long time ago (I only just discovered Perplex City) and the thread is old and cold, but isn't this a bit easy for a black card? Google earth the lat and long, type the name of the village and 1921 into google and there's the answer!
