Everyday Wallet by Mark Traversoni

Effect

The Everyday Wallet is a functional magician’s wallet that allows for two powerful effects. First, a signed card can vanish from a deck and instantly appear inside the wallet. Second, a borrowed object (like a ring or folded bill) can disappear and reappear inside a sealed envelope within the wallet. Both effects happen cleanly, with no extra gimmicks needed beyond the wallet itself.

Full Details

The wallet is designed for everyday use, with multiple card slots, a zippered compartment for cash, and hidden storage for spare envelopes. It does not require additional slides or guides, making it simpler than many magician’s wallets. The sealed envelope effect is quick to set up—prepared envelopes can be stored discreetly inside the wallet, ready for performance.

The wallet is affordable compared to high-end magician’s wallets, making it a practical choice for performers who want reliability without a steep price. It comes with standard envelopes that can be modified for the effect, along with guides to prevent premature sticking.

Who Should Consider the Trick

This wallet is ideal for magicians who:

• Want a functional, everyday wallet that doubles as a magic prop.
• Need a reliable card-to-wallet or object-to-envelope effect without extra gimmicks.
• Prefer an affordable option that still delivers strong magical moments.
• Perform in casual or impromptu settings where a normal-looking wallet is essential.

Information on How Difficult It Is to Perform

The Everyday Wallet is designed for ease of use. The mechanics are straightforward, and no advanced sleight of hand is required. The sealed envelope effect involves simple preparation, and the card-to-wallet method is quick to execute. Beginners can learn it quickly, while experienced magicians will appreciate its practicality for real-world performances.
