This Time Their Faces Don’t Count, Here’s the Best Legs Beauty Contest in 1948

These girls are winners in a preliminary contest to select the possessor of the most beautiful legs here in Ocean Park, CA on July 27, 1948. The masks, of course, are so the judges won’t be swayed by facial beauty. Among the girls are a dramatic actress, three student models, a secretary, a student, a drum majorette, and a nightclub cigaret girl.
