What a riot. You're the best, but where are the tiara and white gloves? I think the pocketbook posses are the scariest, especially the '67 ones, who look like flight attendants. And the "Charlie's Angels" in yellow pantsuits--oh help! And, Gawd, I thought I saw my MOM in the 1949 pic! Great post! What a riot. You’re the best, but where are the tiara and white gloves?

I think I still have one of those outfits from the 1971 picture in the back of my closet somewhere. Although I doubt I could still fit in it any longer.

Still, we were packed like sardines, to the point that we couldn't even get our hands into our pockets to reach a camera.
