In the 1940's this trick was a regular feature of things I did...not with a 3x5 card but with cigarette paper. My step dad rolled his own, or rather I rolled them for him, and so always had paper on hand.

Hey, who's handing out all the negative points? Posters are getting dinged because they liked this trick? Well, it is "news you can use" - I will use it to entertain the kidlets. What's wrong with that? Wanna ding me? BRING IT ON!!

I remember doing this back when I was a teenager, I was fascinated by mobius strips [it has only one edge and one surface so it's one dimentional] and other physics anomolies.

Simply brilliant [key word =simply] you could earn a $1,000 in each pub...once...then move on quickly ..before your repution preceded you.
My grandkids will love it as l will do a big build up...something as simple as this needs to be drawn out a bit , particularly as brownie points are hard come by for the older set ...yes?? thank you, much enjoyed

I have done this. It is easy once you know what to do.

I used to love doing stuff like this in school! I think my teachers used it more to determine who would actually follow directions.
