-Solid blocks without a center cavity 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.

 ===== As an Effect =====
 The solid deck as a gag was described by Harry Hanaoka as "Frozen Cold Deck" in //[[https://askalexander.org/display/38273/The+Sphinx/19|The Sphinx]]//, Vol. 25 No. 6, Aug. 1926, p. 171. It was later popularized by Paul Harris as "Solid Deception" in //[[https://askalexander.org/display/10760/Paul+Harris+Reveals+Some+of+His+Most+Intimate+Secrets/9|Paul Harris Reveals Some of His Most Intimate Secrets]]//, 1976, p. 1.
