I have flyer from the
Texas Centennial 1936. It is different then the flyer on
your web site.
In
that it says Susie was born in the Belgian Cono, 23 years
ago of normal German parents as their only child. It
goes on with more info until the bottom. Were it says Susie
is the greatest living sensation ever shown in America and
is under personal management of Mr. Julius Kuchnel. Come to
see this living wonder at the Monster Show. This is a 2 page
fold out. On the left side is the picture of Susie as it
looks on your site and on the other side is the Biographical
Sketch of the Life of Susie-Kordje. What can you tell me
about it?
I
found the flyer in a collection of photo's I bought at a
auction. The photo's are from
Dean
Eldridge Museum, Flagataff, AZ.. He went to the Texas
Centennial in Dallas, TX.
There
was some post cards along with this flyer from the fair.
Also of interest was some early pictures he took of the
museum being built and a sideshow in the area in the late
1920's.
The sideshow
photo's were taken by Dean Eldridge. He died in 1936
so I thing they are from 1920's. These maybe from the
Flagstaff, AZ area or maybe when he went down in the at
the Texas Cent. Fair which would make it in 1936.
I have had
them for 5 or 6 years after buying them at his relatives
auction near me. Dean was originally from the state of
Wisconsin. All the photos were shipped to his relative in
WS.
I was hoping
the the person listed as Zandra was some how part of a
sideshow at one time. but I couldn't find anything online
about her yet.
Along
with many other old pictures.
