See “Turning Index Corner in Fan of Cards”, in Card Manipulations, No. 5, Hugard, 1936, p. 142, for an early description of the idea of bending up the lower left corner of a selection in a fan to glimpse (and crimp) its index corner. This may be the first published explanation of this glimpse. Hugard makes no attribution for it.
