Nicely researched. Thanks for sharing!
Interesting to note: Jerry has somewhat disavowed the effect — ceding that it’s an intriguing problem, but ultimately inferior to Vernon’s plot. |

Tricks and plots of that kind — those that inadvertently shed or transfer their ancestry, for one reason or another — make for most interesting exploration! Other examples could (arguably) include Whack Your Pack, Future Classic, Hotel Mystery... the list goes on. |

I also wanted to discover some lesser known facts that may otherwise have been lost when a generation of magicians pass away. I also think it's an outstanding effect and is an brilliant contribution to card magic by Jerry Sadowitz.

I just went through Duffies Card Compulsions and worked through Within You Without You. It has a very startling all at once change using a method I’ve never seen before. It an easily be adapted for use without a sports jacket.
