Podcast Tribute to Miss America, Part 1

THERE SHE IS…

Believe it or not, these are all the contestants in the very first Miss America Pageant back in 1921!!!  The winner, Margaret Gorman from Washington DC, is the 3rd from the left (in the pirate hat).  Notice these are their competition swimsuits… Yes, this is what they were wearing when the judges made their decision – LOL!

Also, it’s always good to know that even back in 1921, some ladies had trouble remembering to always stand with “pretty feet.” 🙂

Check out this episode!

Here are a few additional photos of Margaret Gorman, Miss America 1921…

THOUSANDS of people showed up to watch the very first “Atlantic City Pageant” in Atlantic City, New Jersey!!!!

The pageant was won by 16-year-old marbles champion Margaret Gorman of Washington, D.C. With critics hailing "Boardwalk Empire," the HBO series set in Prohibition-era Atlantic City, as perhaps the best of the fall TV season, the 12-episode series will keep Atlantic City in the nation's consciousness far longer and better than any ad could.
