Hi Group,

I need help - I want advice on what wallet to purchase for a good clean card to wallet routine.

There are so many on the market at varying prices so your advice would be greatly appreciated.

Might want to check out The UCCU by Jeff Kaylor. It has other applications too.

First, can you palm cards - well? What types of wallets do know so far?

Best card to wallet is in the 'Ultragaff deck' in my opinion. It can't be signed yadda yadda yada but seriously, I performed it just to test it and it's seriously killer!

Ditto what two people already said - UCCU by Jeff Kaylor.

Can't recomend it highly enough. You're not tied to any particular wallet, can be your own or spectators, in fact it doesn't have to be a wallet. Handbags, purses, even shopping bags, it works great. On it's own it essentially replaces the need to palm anything, card can be signed, the possibilities are truly endless. It really is an essential and I don't leave home without it.

Here's a wallet that does more than just signed card to wallet, but also performs Steve Dusheck's Dollar Punch and Pad-i-Add Trix plus more. It's called The Wizard's Wallet and you make it yourself by simply following our instructions for buying the correct (inexpensive) style of wallet from a variety of sources (including many Dollar Stores). The way to gimmick the wallet does not involve cutting or sewing leather- you leave the wallet alone and just use it properly. The effect can be found in The Wizards' Journal #20 on my site.

Hi 1173carld:

For card to wallet I use The Real Man's Wallet. I find it very easy to load in my front pants pocket or the breast pocket of my coat. What I like about this wallet is the ease of the load and that it's my everyday wallet. I have also used Tom Mullica's Super Slim Hip Pocket Wallet which requires no palming. This is a good wallet as well and is simple to load that can be used as your everyday wallet as well.

I had one of these for the longest time:

It was perfect for me since I never wore a suit coat and could do impromptu very easily. Looks like a very ordinary wallet which is how I used it. Carried in my back pocket like everyone else does. Now I wear a suit to work every day so I have switched to a BKM wallet which I also love:

I'm using the JOL Wallet. There's to ways to load the card. Palm or no Palm.

I think its one of the best wallet I'd so far for the famous Card to Sealed Envelop revaluation.

If you perform predicta, the wallet comes with some thing extra that helps you perform the effect better.

Patrick Page's Routine, taught on "The Secret Seminars Of Magic" DVD, Vol. 2. $12.50. It's published by L&L.
At the point it was recorded (the 'Trik-A-Tape' series), he'd had 40 years of performing the effect. Some great tips and moves, and you get a whole hour of extra card effects included.
There's a credit card effect and a great burnt and restored bill effect on there too, with a great envelope handling.

In terms of wallets, Jerry O'Connell (JOL) is your man. Great quality. Lots of dealers stock his stuff, or he's online at http://www.leatherjerry.com/ (lots of fun extra stuff on his site).
