PRODUCTIONS FROM THE SECRET HOLDS

1. FROM THE THUMB GRIP

This is done by bending the fingers (the first finger coming above the cigarette and the second below it), gripping the cigarette between them, and carrying it away as they are extended. The bending and subsequent straightening of the fingers, with the cigarette between them, must be done in a flash as the hand reaches up into the air under the pretense of catching a cigarette.

The production from the right hand must he made with the right side of the body to the front and from the left hand with the left side nearest to the spectators. As we shall see later, as many as five or six cigarettes can be held in the thumb grip and be produced singly.
