FINAL REMARKS

As a general rule, thimble manipulations should be done, without patter, to a light musical accompaniment. Slow, deliberate moves are best, in order that the spectators may be able to follow them without effort and that each surprise may register. The commonest fault is that of working with the hands too close to the body, the head down and the body turned away from the spectators. Remember that if the onlookers cannot see plainly all that you are supposed to be doing they will not be interested and your efforts will fall flat.

In the course of thimble manipulations, opportunities will occur for imperceptibly dropping the thimble into the sleeves, thus making a complete vanish.
