 The concept caught on in the twentieth century, with several modern approaches hitting the scene. R. Shrimplin described a simple drop-off from end grip, dubbing it the "E-Z Top Change" in //[[http://askalexander.org/display/38056/The+Sphinx/3|The Sphinx]]//, Vol. 19 No. 2, Apr. 1920, p. 35. Chas Eastman described Tommy Tucker's handling in //[[http://askalexander.org/display/18519/Expert+Manipulative+Magic/14|Expert Manipulative Magic]]//, 1933, p. 13. Stanley Collins included his method as a conclusion to his "Esscee Double-Lift" in //[[http://askalexander.org/display/17860/A+conjuring+m+lange/111|A Conjuring Melange]]//, 1947, p. 97. A pivoting motion was introduced to the idea by E. Brian MacCarthy as a [[cards:top_change|Top Change]] alternative in //Sleights Supreme//, 1948, p. 32. Max Katz also developed the pivot dynamic, but swiveled the top card in the opposite direction to that used by MacCarthy. Katz described this in //[[http://askalexander.org/display/15126/M+U+M/100|M-U-M]]//, Vol. 47 No. 3, Aug. 1957, p. 100. This is similar to the commonly cited Dai Vernon replacement that was published four years later in //[[http://askalexander.org/display/17434/Dai+Vernon+s+Further+Inner+Secrets+of+Card+Magic/72|Further Inner Secrets of Card Magic]]//, 1961, p. 70. The concept caught on in the twentieth century, with several modern approaches hitting the scene.

-Another popular technique is one attributed to Frederick Braue, Juan Tamariz and Gordon Bruce. Braue never published his handling, but recorded it in his notebooks; see //[[http://askalexander.org/display/13992/The+Fred+Braue+Notebooks/28|The Fred Braue Notebooks, Volume 3]]//, 1985, p. 25. Tamariz contributed his handling, called "The Tamariz Turnover" to //Pabular//, Vol. 7 No. 1, Jan. 1982, p. 970. Bruce's version appeared in //[[http://askalexander.org/display/5273/Pabular+Vol+07/56-57|Pabular]]//, Vol. 7 No. 4, May 1982, p. 1024. These three techniques vary slightly, but are based on the same central handling.+popular related technique, employing a Double Turnover instead of a Double Lift, is attributed to Frederick Braue, Juan Tamariz and Gordon Bruce.
