Hey guys,
I have never posted here, but there is a first for everything, right?
Anyway,
I was reading through one of my books, magic 1400's - 1950's, and I found this picture:

(sorry, I don't know any other way to post a pic)
The caption says: ''This unknown magician faced the same problem as Evanion, he wanted to depict his considerable skill with playing cards, this time in a still photograph. His solution, this gravity-defying display of card-manship, would certainly have provoked an air of curiosity in his performance.''
In the text below it tells about how this was sometime late in the 1800's. Anyone know the move?
Thanks!
