How good is this wallet? When I opened up the package I was greeted with a beautifully made wallet,
smells of genuine leather with a whole bunch of additional stuff. It comes with a booklet, a DVD, ID
case, Wonder unit.
The DVD explains the entire function of the wallet extremely clearly.
It goes through:
the Card to ID case in zippered compartment,
card/ring/small object to
sealed envelop in zippered comparment
no palm feature
peek feature
confab routine with
wonder unit
The DVD also contains a heap of files to allow you to print and make your own
envelopes.
The card loads like a dream, both for palm and no palm. you can't really miss.
and I've been doing the ring to sealed envelope ever since I got this wallet and it works 100%.
The no palm feature can not only allow you to produce card in the zippered comparment, but
also rings, etc.
The wallet itself is large enough to carry 4 credit cards, an ID clear
compartment for license, or a packet trick. some bill compartments. there's also an outside pocket
for another packet trick. All in all, plenty of room. although, some will not be able to carry
kolossal killer!
Disadvantage?
cost. but, I believe this is worth every penny. You get
a beautiful wallet that has tonnes of features that will last for a long time.
and
size. not a typical back pocket wallet. although, you can load it in in the back pocket. but
best used for a jacket breast pocket. So, if you're after a pants pocket wallet, this will not be
it, although, at 6x4, its similar size to the hip pocket mullica.
HIGHLY HIGHLY
recommended. at a great price from penguin I might add.

This is certainly the best wallet for the classic Card to Wallet effect. I have used several in the
past, and this one is most definitely the best for several reasons:
~ Loading is fast
~
The loading feature is well-disguised, so as not to arouse any suspicion
~ The wallet can be
handled casually by spectators and avoid suspicion
~ Though larger than today's "typical"
wallet, this wallet is still great, and functions as a regular wallet far better than do all other
CTWs on the market.
~ Construction is from quality material, and conducted with care
~ Palm
and No-Palm loads are both available
~ ID case is included for Card to ID Case Inside of Zipped
Wallet (my personal favorite)
~ Object to Envelope is an option with this wallet, and the DVD
included provides patterns for making the envelopes
For the sake of space, I will stop
listing the CTW advantages, but the list goes on in this fashion.
Furthermore, this wallet
is versatile, going far beyond the regular Card to Wallet effect. The small wallet not only has a
peek option (invaluable for mentalists who don't want to carry around a separate wallet for peeks),
but it also now comes with the Wonder Unit (previously only included with the large version). The
Wonder Unit allows for the Powerball 60 routine as well as Confabulation routines, among other
things.
The plain fact is this: If you want a wallet that is high-quality, will work
wonderfully as a normal wallet, and provides the opotions of Card to Wallet (palm AND no-palm), Card
to ID Case, Card to Envelope, Mentalism peeks, Confabulation, Powerball 60, and others, then the
Jerry O'Connell Plus Wallet is what you ought to buy.
The price is high, but you'll never
have to pay it twice. It is a worthwhile investment for anyone who performs Card to Wallet
regularly, or plans to do so.

First of all I have to say this is the best wallet I have bought, and I have around 11 magic
wallets.
This wallet is great and the fastest c2w and even coin/ring to envelope.
The
dvd is very good and you learn alot of routines with it.
One of my favourit routine is
coin/ring to envelope. Its super fast and with bonsalopes envelopes it work like a dream.
If you dont want to have more bonsalopes with you, you can make a your own envelope that you can
use ower and ower again.
(Same principle like the vader wallet)
If you combine this
with QB3 coin bend then after the coin is bend and then the coin vanish, the coin appeares inside a
envelope in the wallet.
Killer routine if you ask me.
Its a little bit big, but it fits
perfect in the back pocket and front pocket with no problem. Because its not thick at all.
This fit everything I need:
Burn notice
extreme burn
stand up monte
loops and
more and its still not fat.
This for me is a must buy for a close up magican.

I HAVE THE HIP HOP MULICA SLIM (VERY RECCOMENDED) BUT I LOVE THE "TOUCH" WITH THE "JOL" THAN WHEN
YOU PERFORM THE "PALM VERSION" YOU CAN TURN THE WALLET OR TOSS IN THE TABLE WITH ANY ANGLE PROOF.
AND THE REAL "TOUCH" IS FOR ME THE AWESOME PRODUTION INSIDE A SEALED ENVELOPE OR THE ID CASE.
THE LEATHER IS FIRST CLASS.
I HAVE ADD THE RICHARD'S PINNER "PET"WHERE YOU CAN PRODUCE IN
YOUR WALLET AN HARD PLASTIC ENVELOPE IN WICH THERE ARE A TIPICAL RED CHINESE SEALED
ENVELOPE.....VERY VERY PARTICULAR.

Upon receiving this wallet, I was greeted by a beautifully looking AND smelling wallet (super high
quality leather), a booklet, a DVD, a leather ID case, and a Wonder Unit.
This wallet is
by far one of the best tools in close up magic. I use it as my everyday wallet so I'm always ready
to perform! The wallet has plenty of room for about 3 packet tricks, money, a license, and whatever
various other things a wallet may hold. I've yet to run out of room in it. The loads in the wallet
are extremely smooth. I've never had a card get stuck before.
The ID Case is nice.It's
just a small leather pocket with a clear window on one side. This is to make the card to wallet a
bit more amazing. When you pull the ID case out of the zippered compartment of the wallet, the
spectator sees a facedown card. You can then give them the ID case and let them take the card out
themselves to reveal their signed card.
The DVD is pretty well-produced. It didn't really
go into detail about how to palm or any other moves, probably because the wallet is aimed at
experienced closeup magicians.
There are a couple bad things about the wallet. the first
is that it costs so much! I saved for a few months, and it really payed off when I received the
wallet. After working with it for a few months, I know that it was worth every penny. The second is
that American bills don't fit in the wallet without folding, but that's not really a big deal.
Overall, this is the one of the bests tools in magic I have ever owned. I can't see myself
performing without it. I recommend it 100%! It's extremely well made with quality leather. Make this
your next magic purchase. You wont' be sorry.

There are a lot of wallets out there on the market. I read some reviews to decide which wallet I
should purchase. This wallet is awesome!!! The best load I've ever seen, Palm and no-palm!!! You get
a dvd, lots of extras and a very well munufactured wallet in black leather. I recommend this product
to everyone, who wants to fool people with card to zipper compartment, and more impossible to
leather-case in zipper compartment. Great in combination with CASANOVA CONCEPT by Steve Haynes!!

I've been using a Le Paul wallet for years but came across this and I love it. I love the size. I
love the features. I love the ease of setup. Sure there are the different envelopes that you have
to use but that is a small issue for me.
I use this primarily for a ring in envelope in
wallet. I use it for card in wallet too, but the ring in my favorite and this is a solid worker. I
was worried because of the size--totally fine, in fact, fantastic, fits in my coat pocket really
well and looks more natural than a gigantor Le Paul.
It is a solid wallet. Well made.
Smells nice.
For me this is the perfect wallet for card and ring to sealed envelope. The ring load takes a split
second in full view. The video shows a lecture with a performance using the wallet .I wish I would
have seen David's tip for the load years ago. The set up takes seconds and is very easy with the
bonsalopes and the no palm feature is lightning fast. The reactions are amazing, actually over the
top for the work that is done. The wallet itself is beautifully constructed with supple top quality
leather and a very useful coin purse is attached.
I have two of them.One as a back up ,but I
will probably never need it given the quality of this wallet.
But this and amaze your Audience!!!! It is awesome!!
Not long ago I realized I needed to add a Himber Wallet to my performance. Although there were
plenty of options I opted for a Jerry O'Connell, and I just love it.
I had been thinking
about adding a signed card to wallet sealed in an envelope, and although there were another million
to one options. There was never really was another choice for me. Hands down it had to be a Jerry
O'Connell. I now have both and they will last the rest of my lifetime.
Designed and
engineered to last, work flawlessly and gracefully. Who can ask for anything more. Simply
brilliant.
One of the best!
