WANDAS, SUZY (JEANNE VAN DYK). THE WANDA’S GODDESS OF MYSTERY. Paris: Louis Galice, ca. 1910. A comely lady rises from the flames of a smoldering cauldron as imps look on and doves fly in about, while the second magician stands beside the brazier holding a fan. Framed to 53 ½ x 38 ¼”. Inscribed and signed by Wandas and dated in 1966 in the lower left. Not examined out of frame. An early poster advertising the magic act of Belgian magician and manipulator Suzy Wandas, who worked with her family in European fairgrounds, and later with her mother, and finally solo, in the finest variety theaters and music halls on the continent. This poster advertises the turn with her mother, though the pair was frequently billed as a sister act.
