Winston Freer Tile Puzzle. Buffalo, Karl Norman, ca. 1970. A grid of tiles is exhibited and shown to contain nine rows of seven tiles each. The magician removes one tile, but when the grid is reassembled, 63 tiles remain. This is repeated twice more, but each time, despite removing one tile, 63 still remain. Based on the original puzzle designed and built by Winston Freer, aka "Doc" Maxam. With original instructions, hand-illustrated. Crudely made (as issued), but good condition.
