Casa Susanna
"Some time ago, while at a New York flea market, inveterate collectors Michel Hurst and Robert Swope discovered a large body of snapshots: album after aged album of well-preserved images, taken roughly between the mid-50s and mid-60s, depicting a group of cross-dressers united around a place called Casa Susanna, a rather large and charmingly banal Victorian-style house in small-town New Jersey. The inhabitants, visitors, guests, and hosts used it as a weekend headquarters for a regular 'girl's life.' Someone-probably 'Susanna' or the matriarch-nailed a wonder board on a tree proclaiming it 'Casa Susanna,' and thus a Queendom was born."
