It packs small (the size of a credit card) but plays big! 5 different routines are possible:2 are
sight gags, 2 involve numbers and objects, and 1 requires a deck of cards. One may or may not use
all 5 routines but even the sight gags make great icebreakers. What's in your wallet?

If you know me, you know that I love good, powerful, practical magic. This fits RIGHT under my
category of good magic... but it only gets 4 stars.
This is a good, practical effect as I
said; the classic Elephants In Denmark effect, a card force... a few other things all packed in a
little thing that you keep in your wallet. Nice idea, and I enjoyed it a lot.
But then it
got me thinking, which is why it lost a star... The goodness of the Elephants in Denmark effect (the
thing that really MAKES this card) is that it is AUDIBLE. You need no visible or physical means to
make this work. Taking that away and giving this a physical premise CAN make it more powerful, but
it completely takes away the original magic of the effect; that you can audibly predict thoughts...
I don't know, maybe I am OCD... This is a great trick for a close-up worker, I just think
that they should have used a different trick as the main one on the card.

Its a really clever prop, you can do 5 good tricks, i like it, if you have some extra cash get it,
its a nice piece of magic.

This is one of the neatest inventions. All the little things that come on the card are the greatest.
I carry it with me all the time.

I originally found this mentioned in a course on public speaking. By asking a series of indirect
questions you guide a person to freely and randomly "choose" in their mind the color Gray, the
animal Elephant and the country Denmark. They are bewildered to see you happen to know those answers
- I use this all the time, and having the card to go with it is makes this cool trick much more
powerful.

I actually like this one... it's a good extra to carry around with you, and a nice addition to any
impromtu routines you may get into. I usually do the country, animal, and color routine that comes
with this, and the 8 of diamonds revelation really amazes people. All in all, this won't be your
strongest piece of magic, but it's a nice and easy little thing that you can carry around and always
have something neat to do. Put it in your wallet, and your ready to go anytime you go out.

This is a pretty good prop to use for this classic trick. If you already know this trick, I wouldn't
go and buy the card because I think there are other great ways to reveal it, but if you don't know
the trick then pick it up. I did this trick for my math students a while ago and liked it. However,
they'll quickly pick up on how it's done, so I find that it's better used as a gag rather than
magic.
This is an awesome trick with tonnes of material to use! The only problem is, with me living in
Australia, people always say Echidna or Emu.... (No Joke). But if you live anywhere else, you'll be
fine!
it has 5 tricks and no1 really picks a grey elephent in denmark its all luck if they do but its a
good price and is a cool trick i carry it around with me all the time BUY BUY BUY BUY IT
