-This type of vanish is frequently attributed to T. J. ­Crawford. However, in the first published description of Crawford’s handling of the sleight, in //[[http://askalexander.org/display/40408/The+art+of+magic/245|The Art of Magic]]// (1909, p. 243), authors ­Hilliard and Downs pronounced the sleight as neither “original, or even new”, and mentioned it " a  favorite  of  the  late  Harry  Stork,  and  [...]  a  spe­cialty  of  an  esteemed  correspondent,  Mr.  T.  J.  Crawford." An earlier example of this type of vanish is Claude ­Grivolas's "L'Empalmage" recorded in the July 1907 issue of //[[http://askalexander.org/display/14371/L+Illusionniste/605|I’Illusionniste]]// (Vol. 16No. 67, p. 296).+This type of vanish is frequently attributed to T. J. ­Crawford.
