EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of Blackpool in the 1960s. The image captures two iconic figures - Blackpool footballer Jimmy Armfield and Tony Waiters - as they proudly hoist up a beaming eighteen-year-old Essex student named Pamela Harrison. This triumphant moment follows her victory in a heat during the highly anticipated 1000 Miss Blackpool beauty contest on August 6th, 1964. The photograph exudes an undeniable sense of action and excitement. As Armfield and Waiters lift Harrison into the air, their jubilant expressions mirror her own elation at being crowned a winner. The scene is filled with energy and anticipation, capturing not only the thrill of competition but also celebrating female empowerment. Dressed in a bikini that epitomizes the fashion trends of the era, Harrison stands as a symbol of youthful beauty and confidence. Her presence alongside these esteemed judges highlights her remarkable achievement within both sports and beauty realms. This snapshot serves as a reminder of how sport can transcend boundaries, bringing together individuals from different walks of life to celebrate talent and success. It encapsulates an era where women were beginning to assert themselves more prominently in traditionally male-dominated spaces like football. Mirrorpix has expertly preserved this piece of history through their stunning print collection, allowing us to relive moments that shaped our society's perception of beauty contests while honoring those who paved the way for future generations.
