WonderFob by Jon Allen

This video is a promotion for WonderFob, a new everyday carry (EDC) item designed by Jon Allen. The video highlights the versatility and deceptive nature of this prop, emphasizing its ability to create seemingly impossible moments of magic. Allen demonstrates how WonderFob can be seamlessly integrated into various routines, making it a valuable addition to any magician's arsenal. The core concept behind WonderFob is its ability to conceal a folded playing card, allowing for a range of effects to be performed with minimal sleight of hand. It’s designed to be a natural and unassuming prop, easily carried on a keyring and used in a variety of settings. The video stresses that the actions involved are natural and motivated, minimizing any suspicion from the audience. Kyle Purnell, a respected figure in the magic community, has praised WonderFob as a "wonderful EDC offering mind-bending magic any time." Three primary effects are showcased: Signed Card to Keyfob, where a signed card seemingly transports and folds inside the fob; Lucky Card, where a spectator freely selects a card that matches the one already folded within the WonderFob; and Free Will, where three independent choices match a prediction contained within the fob. Allen emphasizes the naturalness of WonderFob’s use, suggesting it can be present from the start without raising suspicion. He believes WonderFob offers a unique and practical solution for magicians seeking to add impactful moments to their routines, appealing to both experienced performers and those looking to expand their EDC magic repertoire. The video concludes with a reminder to respect the intellectual property of other magicians.
