Appearing Wand

Effect: From a small purse you produce a large solid magic wand or pencil.

Secret: Obtain a small money purse and cut a small hole at the bottom.

Presentation: Have the wand partly up your sleeve and the other end inside the purse, through the hole. Show the purse, then open it and slowly pull out the large wand. This impressive illusion should be practiced in front of a mirror. It is a real fooler and worth the extra trouble in obtaining a suitable purse.
