-While the idea of openly marking the values and suits on the backs of cards is generally attributed to Ted Lesley, who used white press-on lettering on the backs of the cards, Page Wright suggested using a typewriter on a blue-backed deck to do the same job. This is mentioned by Fred Braue in the Nov. 1947 issue of //[[http://askalexander.org/display/16416/Hugard+s+Magic+Monthly+Vol+05+No+06/6|Hugard's Magic Monthly]]// (Vol. V, No. 6, p. 370). Braue begins the note with "Out of the Past", which may suggest Wright published this idea somewhere earlier.+While the idea of openly marking the values and suits on the backs of cards is generally attributed to Ted Lesley, who used white press-on lettering on the backs of the cards, Page Wright suggested using a typewriter on a blue-backed deck to do the same job.
