 ====== Chosen Card Found Reversed in Pack ======
-This trick appears in //El bruho en sociedad// by Juan Mieg, 1839, "La Carta Vuelta", p. 99. The method is to palm the selection from the deck and let the spectator shuffle the pack. Then, in taking it back face up, secretly add the selection, reversed, to the underside of the pack. A Pass is then used to move the card to the center of the deck, where it is revealed.
