But the thing that gets me is that one of them looks like an 8-bit isa on a full length XT/PC card with another bit of edge connector way down the other end. That's the one covered in 256k simms.
I know it's a long shot. But I can always hope.
Sounds a lot like an ancient Vesa Local Bus or VLB video card. It's a PC thing. Looks like an ISA slot with a brown PCI slot behind it on the motherboard, except it isn't a PCI slot.
I wouldn't expect SIMMs on a video card, but you never know. One likely possibility, if it *is* an Amiga card, is that it's a bridgeboard -- those are the only cards that'd touch both the ISA bus and the Zorro bus lurking inside a big-box Amiga -- so compare and contrast some likely photos of that.
Just as likely (and finding a manufacturer on the silkscreen would help confirm it) is that it's one of the proprietary PC expansions thus-described...
...And from there, it could even be a whole standalone 486-on-a-card or similar, intended for use with an industrial backplane.
