A dollar bill is placed upon a five spot, as shown in diagram one. Starting at the bottom edge of the dollar bill, the two are rolled slowly and tightly together as per diagram two.

This rolling together business is continued as per diagram three and at the same time the performer is talking about the impending inflation and how it is necessary to have five times as much money to get a dollar’s worth.

Just after reaching the stage as depicted in diagram three, the rolling is stopped and the performer asks the onlooker to put his finger on the part of the dollar bill still showing. This, he explains, is to prevent any sleight or tricky move.

Now, he states, one is to imagine inflation as a fact and the value of a dollar has become five times greater. Unrolling the bills slowly it is found that the five dollar bill is ON TOP of the one dollar bill, and the spectator is still holding down the one spot!

Practically automatic is the working of this cute and impromptu table trick. If the reader will take two such bills in hand and roll them as per instructions and diagrams, they will find that after the five spot is completely rolled, the last edge will ‘flop’ over and over as the rolling of the one spot is completed. However, only one ‘flop’ of the five spot is needed. At this point, the onlooker is asked to place his finger on the unrolled portion of the one spot. Then, after the above mentioned statement, the bills are unrolled and the five spot is found on top. This is an excellent nightclub table stunt, or impromptu feat good at any time of the day or night.
