At one time I could make a single fold wallet from a single sheet of newspaper. It was a trick flip over switch wallet.
Cannot remember how to make it anymore or the source I learned it from.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks,
John

To make the trick paper wallet required multiple folds (used a single sheet from the newspaper comic section) but the wallet only folded over once to open or close. Bills would be removed to make room for the card, card would be put in and another card would be removed, etc.

I usually accompanied this with a remark about how poor I am. "Can`t afford a real wallet, had to make my own".

Looking for the paper wallet fold instructions, maybe Bill Severn.

Thanks for your help.

Have fun,
John

You can find instructions on how to fold the paper wallet as well as a couple effects using it in Self-Working Paper Magic by Karl Fulves.
