Does anybody know where I can get an heirloom wallet that looks like the one shown in the picture at the link below?
http://www.penguinmagic.com/p/S3945 It seems like dealers show this stock photo but the wallet they sell does not look like this. Instead most dealers sell a wallet with a strange pocket for he "note" to be held in.

Wouldn't Alakazam or Tony Curtis be the best source for these Paul?

Not sure, most dealers have them now. I guess I could contact Peter Nardi and see what he says.

I contacted Peter Nardi and it sounds like the ones in the this photo was the original one and then they redesigned it to make it thinner. If you have one like the one shown in the picture here:

I'm just assuming that the wallet being sold at Penguin is the exact same wallet that is sold at Alakazam. The same picture and description. http://www.alakazam.co.uk/product-Heirlo......ick.html
As a matter of fact, I just ordered this wallet from Penguin today so it's a wait and see. Penguin is a great place to deal with and I order about 98% of my tricks from them. If for some reason I'm not satisfied with it I'll not have any problem whatsoever in returning it.

I have seen two different styles. One has a snap enclosed pocket, the other just a slit for a pocket. Both were thin and very well made.

If by chance I don't care for the style of it, just where can I obtain the thinner version with the letter pocket that you make?

I think you need to ask which one they have in stock as I have not made the snap pocket window version for some time now.

OK, I received it today and the wallet is indeed the thin version wallet by Tony Curtis with the pocket for the letter. The only sure way I was able to know this is because I ordered the Heirloom DVD by Peter Nardi which covers and shows the Tony Curtis wallet and it’s workings.
Again, extremely fast service from Penguin. I ordered the wallet and the DVD Monday afternoon 04/18 and received it today 04/20! Just a word of advice here. Always opt for the free shipping as it is the exact same shipping method that is used if you take the second option or even the Priority Mail option @ $9.95. In other words, the free shipping option will be sent by Priority Mail ($9.95) anyway! Believe me, I know as I always order from Penguin and it is always sent via Priority Mail. Also, always include the discount code which will coincide with the amount of the order placed. If you want the discount code just send me a PM as it is always the same code.

Whew....I'm finally glad that's settled!
Like I previously mentioned; the Heirloom wallet sold by Penguin is indeed the wallet made by Tony for the Heirloom trick. No if's and or buts about it.

I had one of the original Heirloom wallets and the interior started to rip out. I contacted Tony. He asked me to send it to him. After he looked at it he replaced it for FREE. Keep in mind that this wallet was at least 5 years old. I bought it when Heirloom first came out.
This is exceptional service. I would buy any product he sells. You don't very often find a company/person that will stand behind his product/work to that extent. If you need a wallet buy one of his. Ted

I own the heirloom after buying (and selling) all the others that were similar. This is my regular wallet and it's wonderful! I have no less then 5 great effects in it; including Heirloom.
