Review on Mind Reading Leather Magician'S Wallet For Mentalism Magic Trick by Phil Anderson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great Z-fold style wallet for mentalism

This wallet is perfect for mentalism, and has a slim and sophisticated look, giving the impression of a narrow coat wallet belonging to a gentleman. It functions as a rectangular flip wallet with a single fold in the center. It has a fine black leather look, feel, and smell, and makes an immediate positive impression of class and style.It's a wallet that allows access from both sides, each appearing identical. The Z-fold design is typical of a Himber Wallet, which also means you can use this for more standard magical effects like card vanishes and switches. This gives it an extra element of flexible use, you could even just use this as a Himber Wallet, rather than just as a mentalism peek wallet. My only criticism is that the leather Z-fold mechanism in my wallet wasn't cut quite cleanly, causing it to occasionally "catch" when opening or closing, but this was a minor issue and would pass unnoticed by any audience.The size is good, because you can fit things up to the size of a standard playing card. It also has a bill-fold look, and when opened one side has a small pocket in which you can insert a dollar bill, to use as a convincer that both sides are identical, or to use for making a "bet" that you'll read the spectator's mind.Little is provided in the way of instructions or routine ideas, but most mentalists and magicians will already have plenty of these in their repertoire, and are simply looking for a quality product that enables them to perform their arsenal of tricks. Certainly this is a fine product that will help accomplish exactly that goal, and I'm very pleased to have it.

Pros
  • Awesome trick
Cons
  • Requires a high degree of audience participation, which may not be suitable for all types of performances or venues
