Another justification for keeping their drawing is to actually do your own research, and tell the subject this. I keep every drawing a participant makes and record the data on a spreadsheet to look for trends by demographic.

I just wanted to thank Eddie for sharing his thoughts regarding his version of the p*** wallet with me. Very simple, direct, and enables you to get a p*** without any fuss.
Simple to "construct" (if you can even call it that) and it gets the job done without worrying about gimmicks, etc. Thanks again! |

Bit late to the party but Eddie still very kindly shared this with me and can only confirm what othered have said - great idea! Simple, effective and clever - you basically get to build yourself in minutes a $50+ peek wallet! Thank you!

The brown cases just arrived, and they are really nice. Even unaltered these would be worth having. Now....off to find something sharp..

I'ver literally emailed this to 80 people the last couple days. Probably easier if I just put it hear.
Thank you everyone for all the kind words. I'm happy to know others will use this. Three days ago before sharing this, I believe I was the only one on the planet using this exact arrangement, which is why I kept it to myself. It really feels good to share something like this with fellow entertainers. I honestly can't think of a negative aspect of this that could be improved upon with a different p***. I've had every wallet and then some - this is all I use - even over my "P*** Deck" I created last year. Anyway you guys are all great and supportive. Thank you again. |

Here ya go
OK, let me first say, if you're not familiar with the cut out card method, this will really tickle your fancy! But, most folks are, so I'll just share my improvements. I've always used the cut out method with my business cards wrapped in a rubber band. It was convenient, but not professional. An added negative was the returned card would sometimes snag when being replaced because your cut out is a rectangle in the middle of the card, and you would sometimes catch an edge. You'll understand this more if you've used this method or try it after I share this stuff. Anyway, I've since ditched the rubber band, and my business cards are now housed in a nice leather business card wallet. This wallet beats ANY wallet on the market, yes, even the ones that cost over $100. Here's why: First, and most importantly, you're not pulling out a "magic" wallet, or even your everyday carry "wink wink"wallet and guiding someone to place the information back in a special spot of the wallet, or even doing it yourself. You're presenting your business card wallet - that houses your business cards. Secondly, there are no moving parts, no sliding panels, no magnets, no flaps, nop electronics - just one insanely easy and beautiful peek. And third, they are replacing the card in the fairest of all places in your business card wallet - ANYWHERE NEAR THE MIDDLE OF THE CARDS! Now here's where this specific wallet takes this familiar idea to the next level. You can cut completely through one side of your business card which completely eliminates any "snag" of a card returned. The front flap of the wallet hides the p*** in the most fairest and casual way while performing. This wallet is actually fun to perform with. You can lay it on the table. You can seemingly flaunt it on both sides right in front of your spectators, and in my opinion, it will seem like the fairest and most innocent wallet you will ever use. More importantly, it will be the fairest, most undetectable method for your spectators. So, here's your wallet and here's what you do. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09P3Q......TF8&th=1 That's (2) of these wallets for under $11 - already UNBELIEVABLE ! Cut a rectangle out of the back of the case . I then used electrical tape on the cut edges. Now cut a rectangle out of maybe a dozen of your business cards, keeping about an inch on one end, but you can go right through the other. Place those into your wallet with 2, or 3 cards on top - you are ready to kill it! I think one of the most important lessons I learned in magic 35 years ago was - "Don't run if you're not being chased" This is so true with this wallet. There should never be a reason to try and hide or misrepresent this wallet. You present it for what it is - it's just your business card wallet and you're using a business card for your effect.. I lay it on the table right in front of them, while setting up the trick. When you pick it up, you fold over the flap to the back. Now you can handle it so freely. I even flash the back a couple times in the presentation. Remove the top card and have them do their thing.You casually hold the case in front of them while turning your head if you like. Instruct them to put the card with the information face down anywhere in the middle of your cards. You close it up and get your complete peek whenever you like. How fair is that. |

I was thinking about using the spare as a convincer, but the more I play with it, the more I doubt I'll even bother. It comes across as secure as is. Just a nice leather case for your cards, nothing to see here. It's a lot of fun, and the handling will be familiar to anyone reading this. If you're not pressed for pocket real estate though, switching in the unaltered case would cover every base you're concerned about. And then you could just decide to use it as a stabilizer to write on.. Thanks again good Sir!

Though Stunninger's SMCPD is in my pocket daily, I also carry Fränz' Prodigy P***. With this wallet, (and receiving two when ordering) I am changing out my business card case that is home to Prodigy P***, still using the same amount of pocket space yet now have more options.
