Jren (Irene) Versanyi (born Muriel Wollner in 1876, in Raab), was a popular actress in Budapest, and internationally as well. A Hungarian Jew, she began her career in French burlesque reviews in the early 1900s (according to Wikipedia Hungary), and proceeded into straight theater, performing in plays by Shaw, Chekov, Shakespeare, Molnar, Maugham, and the list goes on. She also appeared in a number of silent films. We haven't yet found any real biographical information, just film and theater credits. She passed away in Budapest in 1932.
A very nice card, posted in the 1920s from the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. Some wear to edges and corners, and a little foxing. Please examine our high res scans for detail.
Postage is for fully insured, first class, shipping in a secure photo mailer (to avoid any damage to your purchase in the mails), and we happily combine shipping on all paper goods. If you purchase two cards, we will refund the postage on the second card, and when you purchase three or more cards from us at the same time, your shipping will be entirely free, except for international orders which, because of increases in international shipping rates will still be charged one card's shipping fees on orders of three or more. We do not charge for insurance or shipping materials, and as of the date of this listing are still charging below our overall cost on shipping.
