Una breve historia de las tarjetas con solapas
26 de junio de 2026
En la categoría de trucos, los flaps han aportado sin duda mucho, permitiendo la realización de nuevos efectos imposibles con simples manipulaciones.
Sin embargo, ¡esta idea de truco no es (en absoluto) nueva! Sin que sea la primera referencia, al menos desde el siglo XVIII se encuentran rastros de cartas flap en las Récréations mathématiques et physiques .
Extracto de las láminas de las Récréations mathématiques et physiques donde se representan los antepasados de nuestras actuales cartas flap.

Para los más interesados, este mismo libro nos da esta descripción de las cartas flap en relación con las ilustraciones de arriba. ¡Descubre cómo se hablaba de las cartas flap en el siglo XVIII!
Con el paso de los años, este tipo de cartas trucadas se ha perfeccionado. Hoy en día, se añade un sistema elástico para un cambio visual, o incluso un sistema de bloqueo para los trucos perfeccionados que permite accionar la carta trucada cuando se desea. A pesar de esto, es interesante ver que el principio básico no es de ayer.
