​Title: The Gentleman Jack Gimmick (DVD and Online Instructions) by RAR 
Creator: RAR
Publisher: Alakazam
MSRP: $ 69
Skill Level: All
DVD Run time: 39 minutes

Type of effect:  Himber wallet

Manufacturer's Write Up: In 2016, Alakazam Magic purchased the rights to a majority of Roy Roth's (RAR MAGIC) back catalogue. 

The first item to really catch their eye from this large product array was the amazing Gentleman Jack Gimmick. 

The basis of the gimmick is a Himber wallet with a switching function, but the wallet is cleverly disguised as a standard-looking hip pocket wallet (this is the first time we have seen a Himber in this style, and we love it!) But not only that -- The Gentleman Jack also works as an Add a Number Pad and makes for the perfect hideout for your cribs! So, if you are performing a book test, you never need to remember the words. With this cunning device, they are always there for you. 

The Gentleman Jack Gimmick has been expertly crafted in leather. It comes complete with a tutorial DVD and our now-famous registration code, which will give you access to any future routines, handlings or tips for the wallet absolutely FREE of charge! 

How accurate is the ad copy? Accurate
 
What's in the box? 
Wallet – DVD and a stack of post-it notes

Key points: You'll perform miracles with this!
 
How are the production values: Mostly it’s David Loosely talking to a stationary camera, and some secondary close up shots of the table top. Everything is well mic’d and well shot – Alakazam makes great videos.
 
Is it well made: This amazing wallet is truly a step ahead any other Himber-Style wallet I’ve seen. Thick, stiff and strong single stitch leather.

What tricks are included? You’ll learn….
 
Book page force
Daryls’ Dream Card force
Free card selection / prediction / blank deck
Hidden crib idea
 
Storage? Does it "pack flat?"  It’s just a wallet – packs flat!
 
Does it "play big?" 
It’s a wonderful classic of magic familiar to most magicians – easily inserted into some of your favorite effects.
 
Difficulty / Skill level required: 
Super easy to master
 
How much arts and crafts are involved? 
Only a smidge if you adopt the post-it note idea (see my video for more details)
 
How practical is this in the real world? (can it really be done?) 
real world ready
 
Overall score: let's toss out the traditional score of 1-10 and make this something that we all can appreciate and understand.
