The Vintage Creepiness Of The Beautiful Eyes Contest

The Beautiful Eyes contest was held at a British holiday camp in 1958, and contestants were to be judged solely on their eyes…so their faces were covered with ash masks.

This meant that a girl who “isn’t necessarily the pin-up type” could win the beauty contest based solely on her pretty eyes, ocular beauty which was judged by a creep who handles each girl’s head like he’s examining a melon for ripeness.

That poor nineteen-year-old who was forced to kiss the judge was clearly the big loser of the day, but she made all the other girls feel like winners for not having to endure such an atrocity!
