| The idea of placing dice into a matchbox of a size that allows them to rattle but not to turn appears in "The X-Ray Trick" by J. Whitehead, in Bagshawe's //Magical Monthly//, August 1925. The method in which the matchbox drawer is secretly divided, with a pair of loose dice on one end and a pair of fixed dice on the other was described by U. F. Grant in his "Dice and Match Box Mystery" in the October 1929 issue of //[[http://askalexander.org/display/38575/The+Sphinx/36|The Sphinx]]//. This is the earliest reference discovered to date. | The idea of placing dice into a matchbox of a size that allows them to rattle but not to turn appears in "The X-Ray Trick" by J.
