Well I am the Doc Shadow who wrote the routines for David de Val (who manufactured the wallet).

As many have said it is very very chunky and despite the dealer description is not overly suitable for close-up. The 'thickness' is not an issue when it comes to stage or platform.

Whilst, at the time I was happy with the routines that were published in the original manual for the effect; I accept that the manufacturing of the leather wallet itself was a little below par.

Al Manns Diplomental Pouch is the forerunner of Dream Wallet and when the latter was produced there was nothing similar on the market.

I would be VERY interested in seeing if there have been any reworkings on the original design of Dream Wallet and, I guess if there are any currently in circulation.
