How to Turn a Bank Note Upside Down | |||||||
This
page attempts to record what is known about the origin
and history of the folding sequence that can be used to
turn a bank note upside down. Please contact me if you
know any of this information is incorrect or if you have
any other information that should be added. Thank you. ********** 1941 The earliest publication of this effect that I know of is as 'The Curious Fold' in 'After the Dessert' by Martin Gardner, which was published by Max Holden in New York in 1941. ********** This effect also appears: 1947 In 'Willane's Wizardry' by Willane, which was pubished by ARCAS, in London, and has a foreword dated 1947. ********** 1963 As 'Upside Down' in 'Party Lines' by Robert Harbin, which was published by the Olbourne Book Co in London in 1963. ********** |
