European Friday

From today we will publish on every friday pictures of our dutch beauties in European pageants.

On the black and white picture we see Miss Greece, Vivi Alexopoulou and Miss, Stephanie Flatow, in front of the judges at the Miss Europe 1970 pageant where both were finalists and became 4th (Vivi) and 3th (Stephanie) runner-up.
The pageant was held in Greece, where at that time a military regime ruled the country. Miss Denmark, Miss Sweden and Miss Norway did not participate as a protest against that military regime.
On the colored picture we see the newly crowned Miss Europe 1970, Noelia Alfonso Cabrera from Spain, who also participated in the Miss Universe 1970 pageant. Her court included, from left to right, Miss Holland, Miss Portugal, Ana Maria Diozo Lucas (Miss Universe 1970 and Miss World 1970), Miss Italy, Anna Zamboni (Miss Universe 1970) and Miss Greece.
