My bet is that the hidden text behind the screw says "Plus" so the manufacturers are "Memory Plus. The model number X29S... suggests this further. 1991 was a bad year for video cards. The board may work with System 6 and 7, but not beyond. I've no idea what the rotary switch does. If it has a wax seal on it, leave it alone just in case it is a variable resistor that was set at time of manufacture.
