Here are two lineup cards (in Earl Weaver's hand) that actually were taped to the Orioles' dugout wall during Game 3 of the 1970 World Series (when Dave McNally became the first pitcher to hit a Grand Slam in World Series history) & Game 1 of the ALCS vs Oakland the next year.

The person who somehow obtained these, simply taped their ticket stub from the game to the back of the lineup cards and the evidence of the tape that was used to secure these to the wall is evident as well.....

Here is a shot of Earl Weaver in the dugout with a similar lineup card taped to wall:

For comparison sake, Weaver was still using these lineup cards 15 years later:
