The Effect
A spectator selects a card from a normal deck.
You now point to a small wallet, which is face down on the table and say that it contains a photograph of the selected card.
After turning the wallet face up a picture of a girl holding a card is now seen clearly through the window in it. Unfortunately, she is holding a different card to the one that was selected.
The picture is now removed from the wallet and the rear view of the girl is shown as you explain that she did get the colour of the back of the chosen card correct. The spectator is not impressed so you place the picture back into the wallet. Finally, the wallet is turned over again to reveal the girl now holding the same card as selected by the spectator.

Review
I have seen this effect/wallet over & over again on ebay ever since I got into magic a few years back & as am on a wallet tricks phase decided to buy it.
Very simple & self working, gimmick invisible which I like.
Overall
Haven't had a chance to perform this yet but an easy self worker, possibly to my mind it is to easy to figure out but I'll give it try. I shall also at some point change the cards in the wallet from a glamour model to a tombstone or anything else that takes my fancy.
