This is the stuff you get if you're a real performer.
Items that works on a simple idea, and
won't mess up in a middle of a show. Stuff that will play as big as you want to, and that allows you
a lot of room for interaction with your spectators .
It is actually much simplier to use
this routine than I had imagined. Without giving away too much, I would simply suggest you use cards
you can associate in your memory, in any way, with your middle finger, ring finger etc . When you
think about it, it's really quite simple to do . So, no practice is really required to get out and
perform this one.
If you're a performer, and don't already own one, get it.

Sure this is a bit pricey, but quality doesn't come cheap. Wayne is such a fantastic performer, and
I think we're lucky he released this to us.
When you read how this is done, you may be in
disbelief but trust me it flies by people. David Regal has a similar type of effect in his book
Approaching Magic, but it's based on sound.
If you're looking for effects that pack flat
and play big, you should consider this one!

I once saw a magician on TV have a participant place three or four different colored balls in
various pockets while he wasn't looking. I still don't know how he did it, but this wallet allows
for a similar effect. They can't be balls, they must be something flat, but still a powerful
effect. The product claims to allow you to reveal three items in the wallet. I have come to
realize that because of the way the wallet is constructed, you can actually reveal FOUR items from
the wallet. If you do get the wallet, you will know what I am referring to if you place one item at
the top of the wallet compartment, one in the middle, one at the bottom of the compartment, and a
fourth on the opposite side of the wallet. The items would need to be the right size and placed in
the right way. In the instructions, they talk about using business cards, credit cards, and/or
money. Another approach would be to use prepared cards of the right size with images of different
colored balls. These same cards could be used with a different card in a "color monte" routine.
The wallet then serves dual purpose. If you don't have a color monte routine, 20:20 sold by Penguin
shows how to do it and uses a different patter line that I think lends itself to a more entertaining
routine. The wallet is sized right to fit a variety of sized items, including playing cards. It is
a bit pricy, but it lends itself to some good magic.
