-A precursor to an openly revealed solid deck can be seen in a [[cards:deck_shell|Deck Shell]] (first recordings date back to c. 1700), which is a hollow block.
+Blocks of cards secretly glued together for a methodological purpose are described by H. F. C. Suhr in //Der Amateurzauberer//, 1900, p. 88, in an effect called "Die Anziehungskraft der Erde" by Martignoni. In that effect, the cards of each half of the deck are glued together, making two fused blocks of cards. A selection is replaced between these blocks (after they have been switched in for a normal deck). When held loosely, the selection drops out when the deck is held upright.
