Vintage “Back to Back” by Mark Mason close-up card magic trick, complete with the special gimmicked Bicycle-style cards and original instruction sheet.
This visual card effect uses specially constructed red/blue backed gimmicks to create an impossible-looking transformation with a selected card. The routine is designed around contrasting red and blue card backs and includes multiple handling ideas.
The original instructions are by Mark Mason and note that the inspiration for the gimmicks came from Phil Back to Back display/header card

Condition is used/vintage. The paper instructions have some folds, creasing, and light storage wear. Cards appear to be in nice overall condition with some normal handling/storage wear.
I have not personally performed the routine, so please review the photo carefully for exact contents and completeness. You will receive exactly what is shown.
Great piece for collectors or performers interested in Mark Mason, Phil Goldstein, gimmicked Bicycle cards, packet tricks, and visual close-up card magic.
