 Johann Hofzinser had a one-handed palm that was crudely described in Ottokar Fisher's //Kartenkünste//, 1910, p. 44 of the Sharpe translation. Another early technique was L'Homme Masqué's method, which was used for both single and multiple cards, appearing in Camille Gaultier's //[[http://askalexander.org/display/20099/Magic+Without+Apparatus/111|Magic without Apparatus]]//, 1914, p. 91. Walter Gibson also published a method -- albeit an awkward one using the forefinger -- in //[[http://askalexander.org/display/38627/The+Sphinx/8|The Sphinx]]//, Vol. 17 No. 12, Feb. 1919, p. 232. But the common technique still used today, of the right hand arching over the deck to press down with the little finger on the front-right corner, was published by John Elrick in //[[http://askalexander.org/display/38820/The+Magic+Wand/58|The Magic Wand]]//, Vol. 19 No. 145, Mar. 1930, p. 48. Johann Hofzinser had a one-handed palm that was crudely described in Ottokar Fisher's //Kartenkünste//, 1910, p. 44 of the Sharpe translation.
