Quartet by Mark Mason - Magic Trick Review

Tyler Lunsford reviews Quartet by Mark Mason, a visually stunning color-changing card routine that features two folded cards swapping places in the performer's hands, ending with both cards being unfolded and shown freely. The review highlights the inclusion of two handmade gimmicks, a 20-minute tutorial, and maintenance supplies with the purchase. Lunsford notes the routine's practicality for close-up or walkaround settings, its manageable angles, and the ease of learning the required move. However, he points out the gimmicks' wear over time and the need for additional handling if cards are to be examined post-performance. Priced at $40, Quartet is recommended for magicians who appreciate visual effects with minimal setup, though it may not suit those who prioritize immediate audience inspection.
