1. VANISH FROM THE BACK OF THE RIGHT FINGERS
Stand with your left side to the front, the right arm extended, the fingers pointing almost directly to the rear, the ball resting on the backs of the fingers near their tips, the hand palm downwards. Bring the left hand over, holding it vertically, the thumb downwards and the fingers joined, the back of the hand to yourself and the spectators (Fig. 18). Encircle the right wrist with the thumb and fingers, and slide the hand outwards as if to grasp the ball. As soon as it is hidden by the left hand, bend the two middle fingers of the right hand; grip the ball by its sides between the first and fourth fingers; pass the bent fingers above the ball; extend them and immediately bend all the fingers inward, pressing the ball into the palm. Grip the ball in the palm and at once stretch the fingers out again. The whole movement must be completed before the left hand reaches the tips of the right fingers, from which it is then carried away, puffed out as if it hold the ball. Complete the vanish in the usual way.
Instead of placing the ball on the back of the right hand with the left, it is much more graceful to hold it in the right hand, toss it in the air, turn the hand, and catch it in the desired position. The transference from the back of the hand to the palm must be done rapidly, and this move, while very difficult with a billiard ball, is comparatively easy with a golf ball.
