A six page feature article in the national magazine, Bust, is a tribute to the history of women as magic performers.
Adelaide Herrmann, Talma, Dell O'Dell, Celeste Evans, Dorothy Dietrich, and Zurbano are the linch pins of the article with several others included. Becky Blaney, Lisa Menna, Luna Shemada, Julie Sobanski, & Paula Paul are also named. Melinda was not in the article, though I feel she should have been. A very good article on women in magic history. Two of the magicians get full page photos, Adelaide Herrmann and Dorothy Dietrich. There are excellent pictures of Adelaide, Talma, Dell O'Dell, Zurbano, and two of Celeste Evans. In all it is very complimentary. Dorothy Dietrich gets about twice the lineage of any the others along with a mention of her Houdini Museum in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Some of the dates are wrong including that of the bullet catch which was later, as well as dates for the other shows such as the Good Morning series, etc. A fine article overall, objective, but does get a bit off color towards the end, with one of the ladies telling of some off color material she does.
