E. RAYMOND CARLYLE'S "JAKS WALLET" — RARE MENTALISM DEVICE, 3-FOLD LEATHER UTILITY CASE AND DETAILED PRINTED INSTRUCTIONSCarlyle called this “the best peek wallet ever” because the handling is simple & deceptive.This is a peek wallet that looks like a trifold business-card case — not a Himber, not card-to-wallet, not SUC. Here's why Dr. Jaks loved this and used it as his ultimate "peek wallet":You hand someone a blank business card and a pen. Ask them to write a word, a name, or a simple drawing — you look away. They slide the card into the leather case. You close it and put it aside (some handlings even let them hold the closed case). After a beat of concentration you name the word, or redraw the picture on another card. This is the classic, powerful utility device enhanced by E. Raymond Carlyle's professional handling.You will receive the genuine leather Jaks wallet and the rare printed ingenious handling instructions by E. Raymond Carlyle. You will be able to use this as your everyday business card case while remaining instantly ready to perform, anytime, anywhere.Very hard-to-find & rare, priced for an immediate sale.COMPLETE SET — 3-FOLD LEATHER JAKS WALLET AND PRINTED INSTRUCTIONS — Like new. Never used.The Effect: What The Audience Experiences
The Jaks Wallet is a legendary utility device in mentalism for deceptive peeking of virtually any type of information (and can also be used for close-up magic.)
This is the "go to" peek wallet used by the legendary mentalist Dr. Jaks, and E. Raymond Carlyle.
The provided notes cover E. Raymond Carlyle's preferred handling for the three-fold variation of this wallet, allowing the performer to naturally conceal the method while using the prop as a functioning, everyday business card case. Unlike most wallets being sold to mentalists, this is one item that you will actually use in the real world!
What You Will Be Getting
You will receive the JOL-style leather 3-fold Jaks wallet and the scarce printed instruction sheet written by E. Raymond Carlyle. This is an incredibly practical, pocket-sized utility case that looks and feels like a normal everyday carry item. Because these instructions are so rarely found with the wallet today, I have priced this at a steep discount to ensure it finds a new home quickly with a working mentalist who can benefit from this rare find.
You will be able to create a moment of absolute silence in the room, knowing the method is completely hidden within the natural action of simply opening your business card case.
