WANDAS, Suzy (Jeanne Van Dyk, 1896 – 1986). Suzy Wandas’ Press Scrapbooks. Three bespoke albums compiled and kept by Belgian magician Suzy Wandas, and comprised of hundreds of press notices, magazine articles, printed programs, postcards, photographs, correspondence, and memorabilia from her career before the footlights on two sides of the Atlantic. Most material dates from the 1920s – 40s, with the largest book of the three (incorporating two window cards advertising magic shows on which Wandas appeared) including a smattering of later material including some related to her husband, magician Dr. Zina B. Bennett, and her activities in the 1950s and 60s. The earliest book dates to the 1920s and 30s and includes information about Suzy’s appearances under her stage name “Suzy White Flower,” a nom de theatre used when presenting her musical act, in which she played several songs on the fiddle while balancing atop a giant rubber ball, or twisting and balancing her body in various impossible poses. Sold together with a handful of magazines from Wandas’ collection each featuring Wandas either in photographs or with articles regarding her career or upcoming appearances.
