 Professor Kunard, in his //Book of Card Tricks//, 1888, p. 133, made it clear that conjurers of the nineteenth century had taken to constructing spring-flap changing-cards, using bits of flat elastic. In August Roterberg's //[[http://askalexander.org/display/20169/New+Era+Card+Tricks/236|New Era Card Tricks]]//, 1897, p. 226, he talks of using sheet rubber to fabricate various self-activating card quite similar in construction to the acrobatic card feke that would become popular in the 1960s.
