I have never held a Himber Wallet.

I recently found a copy of Harry Lorayne's "Himber Wallet Book" online at a price too good to pass up. I purchased it based on good things I have heard about it.

I know almost nothing about HW's except some of the basic uses. I do not even know how they are constructed.

As I wait for the book to arrive, I began to think about getting a HW. I wonder if there are many different 'kinds' of HW.

In other words, if I were to buy 10 wallets that say "Himber Wallet" (each made by a different manufacturer) is there a high probability they will function in the exact same way, with each being compatible with Lorayne's book?

I don't have Harry's book but I assume any Himber wallet will work for the routines in his book. I'd suggest getting a larger breast pocket/checkbook style one vice a smaller hip pocket type as I'll bet a number of the routines require the larger one. Browse the routines in the book and you should be able to determine what size will be most useful.

Thanks, Mitch!

The English version which has a larger format and is also called the Star Wallet is different, and will not do the money routine as discribed.

For the routines in the book, you can purchase a very nice on from Hank Lee for a resonable price. It looks very much like american wallets purchased in any good store for men.

Have fun! This is a great versitle prop for hundreds of effects.

Wmhegbli,

Thank you. Just to be double-sure, is this what you are referring to?

Thanks,

Yes, this is the wallet I was refering to. It is very nice for the money and is a wallet a person in the USA would carry with him.
