 Roy Walton, Bruce Cervon and Larry Jennings all claimed to have tackled the idea of having two face-up cards gradually converge around a lost selection in the 1960s. The earliest published solution seems to be André Robert's "Strategy" from Harry Lorayne's //[[http://askalexander.org/display/17858/Best+of+Friends/324|Best of Friends Vol. 1]]//, 1982, p. 321. However, in Robert's effect the sandwich cards do not travel close to each other without any perceived action, but rather with open (faro) shuffles in between the displays.
