A double lift is a sleight of hand maneuver used by magicians in card magic. It is a method by which the magician can keep the identity of the top card secret by lifting the top two cards at once, making it seem as if only the top card is picked up. When the card is shown to the audience, the audience is tricked into believing that they are shown the top card in the deck where in fact they are shown the second card. When the cards are displayed, the maneuver is sometimes called the "double turnover". There are different ways to perform this sleight, many of which allow variations such as a triple lift or even a quadruple lift (turning over three or four cards over as one respectively). Some versions of the ambitious card routine rely almost entirely upon this sleight. In combination with a few other mechanics and good showmanship, entire acts can and have been made out of this single move.〔 The Double Lift, pp. 83-96.〕 ==Origins== The first recorded publishing of the double lift is in Richard Neve's book "The Merry Companion"〔Neve, Richard. The Merry Companion. London: Printed for H. Tracy, 1721. Print.〕 in 1776. It can be seen on page 141, item XXV under "to seem to change the top card of the pack into another". The double lift was next seen in print in the 19th century in Jean Nicholas Ponsin Many confuse the creation of the double lift with the Dai Vernon double turnover, which is an extension of the double lift where two cards are flipped to hide the identity of the top card. Still, many magicians and magic historians debate that Vernon was the creator, though he never has claimed to be the creator. In an interview in the 1982 small-time film "The Wonder of Magic", Dai Vernon said that he "may be the creator" of the double turnover, but wasn't certain. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Double lift」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
