Lo schiavo impazzito, TV movie broadcast on 11 November 1960, with Wandisa in the role of Nina Salviroli. This is another production that appears impossible to find, and once again the TV listing in Radiocorriere TV is a blessing

Another production from the same period is Donne brutte, a TV movie broadcast on 27 January 1961, with Wandisa in the role of Jolly. Once again, Radiocorriere TV provides some precious info on this obscure production

Also in 1961, Wandisa appeared in the TV series Giallo club, season 3, episode 5: "Omicidio cieco", broadcast 26 March 1961. Thanks to the cast list in Radiocorriere TV, we know that she played the role of Paula

This TV series is actually very famous and most of the episodes from season 1 and 2 have been issued on both VHS and DVD, and also been re-run on television. The episodes from seasons 3 and 4, however, have never been released on VHS or DVD and do not appear to have ever been re-run after they originally aired. Very likely, these episodes are lost like various other RAI productions from the early 1960s.

Una Cenerentola alla moda, TV movie broadcast on 31 July 1966, with Wandisa in the leading role as Nelly. Yet another production I was unable to find, but at least we get an article and cast list courtesy of Radiocorriere TV

Looks like Wandisa's final television role before retiring was Il caso Blaireau, a TV movie broadcast on 26 February 1967. She stars in the role of Arabella di Chaville. As always, the cast list courtesy of Radiocorriere TV

After winning the title of "Miss Cinema" at the Miss Italia pageant, Wandisa went on to represent Italy in the 1955 Miss Europe pageant, which was held in Helsinki in June 1955.

Here's an article and a photo of Wandisa at Miss World, taken from the newspaper La Stampa (9 June 1955)

And another La Stampa article (also from 9 June 1955) where Wandisa talks about how cold she finds Helsinki. I split of the article to make it easier to read, but unfortunately, it's from a very bad-quality scan

According to the Pageantopolis website, the winner of Miss Europa 1955 was Miss Finland Inga-Britt Söderberg, whereas Wandisa didn't make it to the top five: http://www.pageantopolis.com/1948-1959.html

Wandisa is spotlighted in the magazine Grand Hotel n. 663 (7 March 1959), where she is featured in a full-page photo with an autographed greeting to the readers of Grand Hotel. There's also an accompanying mini-interview and two black and white photos

Wandisa on the cover of the magazine Cine Tipo n. 16 (19 April 1959). She's only featured on the cover - there's no article about her in the actual magazine (only that small blurb on the cover). Notice how she's wearing the same costume as in the Grand Hotel photo, so those pics must surely be from the same photo shoot

A brief uncredited role in L'intrusa (1955) as Party guest. This melodrama, released the year before Wandisa graduated from C.S.C., should be one of her first ever acting roles.
