In-Stock For a limited Time Only! The Panther Peek Wallet From Outlaw!

Now comes with the 3M Optical filter!
Here''s the skinny. The Panther does not employ, a Stealth gaff, a Caper Case gaff, an Insight gaff, or a gaff like any other existing wallet. The card goes in, you close the wallet and put the wallet away, the work is done.
You DO NOT have to reopen the wallet to get the peek! You DO NOT have to remove a card to get the peek!
It allows you to double write and do a confabulation routine without having to open the wallet to do it!
The Outlaw Panther has four inner pockets and an additional zippered pocket that I refer to as "The Trap Door" (the card sticking out in the photo is in the zippered pocket). The cards pictured in the pockets are just for the photo to show where the pockets are. The wallet does not come with any cards in the pockets. cool The trap door allows you to open the wallet up, unzip an inner pocket, place a folded business card or billet into the pocket, zip the pocket shut, close the wallet and...the card is now outside the wallet and in your hand!
Is that cool or what! It couldn't''t possibly be more fair!
You know what''s even cooler? It now has the Magnum M3M technology.
The Panther allows you to P.W. or swami directly onto a card in the wallet, without having to open the wallet to do it, just like the original Outlaw
The peek area is a full 3/4 of the card, enough to easily do a drawing dup!
The P.W. area is also a full 3/4 of the card! Nice huh?

That''s the skinny.

:: The Return of "One Night" Stan Waldman Hello Super Friends! I'm going to keep this short and sweet. Consider this a reminder to make sure you are free at 7P.M next Wednesday evening, May 21st. Bill Goldman is delivering his award-winning lecture at The Wizard's Apprentice and it is only 20 dollars to get in the door. I've seen a lot of lectures over the years and Bill's is always one of the best. He has great material, knows how to teach it and he's laugh out loud funny throughout. Jack knows this is short notice but there is no way he was going to miss an opportunity to have Bill Goldman lecture. To encourage a great turnout, Jack is raffling off a $100 Wizard's Apprentice gift certificate provided a crowd of twenty or more. So come on in, bring your magic buds, and learn, laugh and maybe even earn! ********************************** Speaking of Gift Certificates! It happens all the time; I see someone come into The Wizard's Apprentice to buy a present for a relative or friend they know is into the fine art of prestidigitation. The thoughtful person knows magic will make a great gift but doesn't have a clue what the intended recipient needs, wants or already owns. This is the perfect occasion to buy a Wizard's Apprentice Gift Certificate! Available for you in any denomination you like. You can redeem your Wizard's Gift Certificate online or at the shop. Each gift certificate comes attractively packaged with a handful of custom manufactured Wizard's Apprentice "Andes" Candies and a beginner's book of magic. -DBC ******************************************************* June Lecture News! On Wednesday, June 4th, Manuel Muerte makes his only South Florida Lecture stop at The Wizard's Apprentice. Manuel is a true master of misdirection and his work in this area is not to be missed. Seating is limited, the cost is 20 dollars and the time is 7:00 P.M. "Look for more on Manuel Muerte coming soon." ************************************************************ WPT IS HERE! Boris Wild. An amazing, visual and magical transformation that will leave your audience speechless! Five cards are shown to your audience. They represent your poker hand - and a poor one, at that. With a deft turn of the wrist and a snap of the fingers, the mismatched cards instantly and visibly change into the winning hand - a Royal Flush in spades! Click here for a demo and more! ************************************************************************* Final Note... Congratulations to The Wizard's Apprentice's One Night Stan Waldman on his successful tour with Michael Locke & The Repeat Offenders. They played a mix of R & B, the blues and rock and roll to sold out crowds for 2 shows per night. You were missed while you were away, Stan, and this is where I'd usually insert some mildly insulting or sarcastic comment. Instead, let me just speak for everyone and say it's good to have you back! Good Thoughts, Dr. Bill *********************************************** David Solomon's "Thoughts Across" A direct, devious method for the classic Cards Across plot. Two spectators select a card - mentally - from a packet of ten. Without any questions, sleights, or monkey business, both cards vanish from the packet completely, and travel to another packet which has been in plain sight from the get-go. Any cards can be thought of. There are no forces, and no palming is required. On this DVD, you will learn David Solomon''s personal handlings of Thoughts Across, as well as two bonus tricks: Double-Crossed Switchcraft and Pure Vice-Versa. Both bonus tricks can be performed with a borrowed deck. All the necessary cards are provided, custom-printed by the United States Playing Card Company. ************************************************* Well that about does it for this edition of the Wizard's Scroll. I truly thank you for taking the time to read our newsletter. If you have any questions or queries do not hesitate to voice your opinion. We'd love to hear from you. Be on the look out for coupons on close-up card magic next edition of The Wizard's Scroll. Until then, we'll see ya' at Billy Goldman's lecture!

Guest Judge, Metalist Max Maven's Book: Prism

While a sizable literature devoted to mentalism was produced in the past hundred years, little has stood the test of time. Among the scant amount that has is that of MAX MAVEN.

Writing under the name of Phil Goldstein, MAVEN has created one of the largest, cleverest and most influential bodies of work in the field, stretching from the latter part of the twentieth century into the twenty-first. His star rose early, with the publication of five slim collections, each packed with innovative and performance-caliber mentalism. More on Max Maven

Street Magic, Children's Magic, Comedy Magic, Cabaret Magic, Strolling Magic, Phobia Magic -- our celebs do it (or at least attempt to do it) all. Their work will be judged by a panel of 3 superstar magicians. Each week, one of the celebrities will be eliminated, until the final two battle it out in Las Vegas for our Grand Illusion finale.

The celebrity "magic students" appearing on the show are: Singer: Carnie Wilson, Comedian: Ant, Actor: C. Thomas Howel, Rapper: Chris "Play" Reid, Actress & Comedienne: Lisa Ann Walter, Actor & Comedian: Hal Sparks, and Pussycat Doll: Kimberly Wyatt.

The show features magicians that are celebrities in their own right: Judge: Jeff McBride, Host & Judge: Jonathan Levit, Judge: Max Maven, Magicians: Murray SawChuck, Simon Lovell, Derek Hughes, David Regal, Silly Billy, and Rocco Silano.
