 Building on the work of Sawa and Aronson, Jim Patton and Bruce Cervon published two more handlings in //[[http://askalexander.org/display/37170/Genii/42|Genii]]//, Vol. 54 No. 11, Sep. 1991, p. 746. In their handlings, the major point of divergence is that the deck is ribbon spread rather than held spread in the hands. Building on the work of Sawa and Aronson, Jim Patton and Bruce Cervon published two more handlings in //[[http://askalexander.org/display/37170/Genii/42|Genii]]//, Vol. 54 No. 11, Sep. 1991, p. 746.

 +The spread technique used by Sawa and Aronson is much older, but it was created for a different purpose. Clayton W. Rosencrance used the move to secretly reverse a selection in the center of the deck in his "Reversed Card" from //[[https://askalexander.org/display/38135/The+Sphinx/23|The Sphinx]]//, Vol. 21 No. 3, May 1922, p. 103. A secret shift still happened as part of the method, but that feature wasn't exploited by Rosencrance.
