3. PRODUCTION OF THREE SOLID BALLS WITH ONE HAND
Preparation. Prepare by placing one ball, with two shells enclosing it, in one of your vest pockets and one solid ball in a holder on the right-hand side under your coat.
Method. After various passes with a third ball, vanish it from the left hand, retaining it palmed in the right. Show the left hand empty and with it take the double-shelled ball from the vest pocket. Toss it into the air with the left hand to prove it is solid and that you have one ball only. Hold it in the usual position between the left thumb and finger at the junction of the shells and, in turning the hand to show the interior, loosen the front shell—that nearest to the spectators. Show the palm of the hand; then, turning it to bring the back of the hand to the front, pull the ball and the second shell up into the space between the first and second fingers with the help of the second finger.
At the moment this second ball appears, steal the third solid ball from the holder with the right hand and hold it in the finger palm. You thus hold two balls in the right hand, one in the regular palm, and one in the finger palm.
Loosen the ball from the second shell with the third finger and, with an upward circular movement of the left hand, quickly pull the ball out of the second shell into the space between the second and third fingers, thus showing three balls.
Bring the right hand over to take the uppermost ball—the solid ball—and in so doing slip the two palmed balls into the shells, giving them a squeeze with the fingers so that they will adhere to the balls. Remove the uppermost ball with the right hand and toss it into the air, catching it again with the same hand. Then toss the other two balls, with the shells attached to them, from the left hand to the right, proving conclusively that three solid balls have been produced in one hand.
