Description
This was first released by Supreme Magic c. 1967 and although the wallet is quite simple it is a very useful device that can be used for many different effects when a switch, vanish, appearance of a card, note, billet are required.
The routine I have shown was inspired by one give in the instructions, but you could easily make up your own routines too. I included two new decks of Jerry’s Nuggets to really class it up, but any other decks could be used too.
Includes:
- Baffling Billfold
- Two decks of Modern Feel Jerry’s Nuggets (bonus)
- Rubber bands
- Use your own bill!
Effect: A red and blue deck are shown and both can be shuffled. The spectator can choose a deck via magician’s choice or just handed the red deck. They shuffle their red deck and you shuffle your blue deck. The spectator chooses any card without looking at it and it is placed face-down under the window in the wallet. Also a $100 is placed above the card under the window, and you tell the audience that you are so sure that you will be able to select their card that if you don’t you will give them the $100. Two rubber bands are placed around the wallet to make sure nothing gets out.
The magician then selects a card from the blue deck and places it down on the table. The wallet is opened and the spectator can remove the card. They turn it over and it matches the blue card on the table – and the magician keeps the $100!
