Guy Hollingworth (born 1974) is an English conjuror known for his skillful card magic and elegant performing style. He created a sensation in the magic community with his trick "The Reformation", in which a signed playing card is torn into four pieces and then visibly restored one piece at a time. He is well known for his acclaimed book, "Drawing Room Deceptions". Some of his card magic is also featured in his videos "The London Collection" and "Routines". He was also featured on NBC's "World's Greatest Magic III" TV special.

It got a resounding response from the public.
