Bills from Nowhere

Effect:

You show your hands to be unmistakably empty. Then, holding your hands together, a qauntity of one-dollar bills magically appear from out of your empty hands.

Secret and prep: You must be wearing a suit or a long sleeve coat for this trick to work.

1:Roll up a stack of five or six one dollar bills as tightly as you can.

2:Place the roll of bills in the crook of your left elbow.

3:Pull the fabric of your coat sleeve up and over the bills. Keep your arm slightly bent in order to hold the rolls of bills in place.

Method:

1:With the bills "loaded" as described, face the spectators. Reach over with your left hand and grasp your right coat sleeve at the crook of your elbow. Pull the sleeve back, clear of your right wrist, as you show your right hand is unmistakably empty.

2:Reach across with your right hand and grasp your left coat sleeve at the crook of the elbow and pull that sleeve back and clear of the wrist, as you show your left hand is empty.

3:During this move, it is very natural for your right fingers to secretly steal the concealed bills from the fold in your jacket.

4:The roll is held between your fingers and palm.

5:Hold both of your hands in front of you at shoulder height, with your left hand in front of your right. This position will give you maximum coverage for the next move.

6:Using the thumb and fingers of both hands, unroll the bills so that they begin to appear at the top of your fingers.

7:After unrolling the bills halfway, suddenly pull the left hand down, so that the thumb of your left hand unrolls the bills the rest of the way from the bottom, leaving the open bills in your right hand. Fan the bills and display them to the spectators.
