Modern Magic: A Practical Treatise on the Art of Conjuring
·
Professor Hoffmann
479
There
is
an
improved
form
of
the
card-drawer,
with
a
double
change,
effected
on
the
principle
of
the
dissecting
drawer-box.
This
is
just
as
above
described,
with
the
addition
that
when
the
two
drawers
are
pressed
smartly
home,
the
action
releases
a
thin
slab
of
wood
forming
apparently
part
of
the
inner
surface
of
the
case,
and
exactly
equal
in
area
to
the
bottom
of
the
inner
drawer,
into
which
it
falls.
When
required
for
use,
a
card
is
placed
above
this
slab,
which,
falling
when
required,
covers
the
card
already
in
the
box,
and
exhibits
instead
that
which
had
been
concealed
above
it,
as
in
the
case
of
the
changing
card-boxes,
described
in
the
chapter
devoted
to
card
tricks.
The
uses
of
such
an
apparatus
will
be
obvious;
but
we
will
describe,
by
way
of
illustration,
one
very
good
trick
which
may
be
performed
with
it.
