In 1926, at the age of 16, Freer saw Howard Thurston perform and became interested in magic.[1] He grew up to be one of magic's cleverest inventors.[2] In the 1930s, Freer worked at Abbott's Magic in Colon, Michigan and performed under the name Alladin and later Doc Maxam. Freer gained a reputation for performing effects like freezing ice in his bare hand. He also startled magicians by performing a suspension while standing in the middle of a floor entirely surrounded.[3] It was captured on the cover of The Linking Ring, August 1941.[4] Freer also published his classification of magical effects in The Linking Ring.[5] Freer also fancied himself a mathematician. One of his most impressive creations was his Tile Puzzle. What makes it so interesting is that neither the pieces nor the frame change shape or size in any way.[6] Published works
