Hello,
After watching "World's Greatest Magic" DVD of bill to lemon, I was thinking that maybe a simple method of doing it is by a 'leg misdirection switch': The signed (in my routine I want it to be signed, not corners or any of that) bill disappears...(you place it in the lemon that's in your pocket - Bill Malone method)... After some byplay you point to a plastic bag that was hanging on a wall far from you the whole show. You take the bag, take out of it a lemon, then say that you got a knife at __________ (whatever) that you always keep on your leg, take the knife from above your shoe [switch the lemon] and you are done. What I'm not sure about - is all of the heat on the lemon that you're holding, so the switch will be noticed (it will look suspicious lifting up the leg etc.) or could this method run clean? Thanks |

It all depends how you are good with your sleights. At first it will not be esay to perform without being notice. You know how one of our rules is to practice. With enough practice if will become easy as if it's a habbit.
Some magicians would rather use a potato instead of a lemon to keep away the messy wetness. |

I like Bill Malones bill in lemon. It looks good and is very convincing.

Check out Rudy Hunter's "Vitamin C", I think is simple and direct. Can be signed, NO gimmick or duplicate bill.

I've been doing the version your speaking of for years...only the lime/lemon is magically produced at the start of the show and handed to someone in the audience to hold. I first learned this method from Carl Cloutier's bill in Kiwi which utilizes Tamariz's "crossing the gaze switch". It is very deceptive and done right out in the open.
