Anyone out there remember the Miss Reingold (beer)contest?
If you sat in the subway in the 50's and looked up at the ads above the windows, you might have seen a series of pictures of pretty girls, all in identical blue blouses, one of whom was to be voted the prettiest of the lot. What I can't recall is how the voting took place. Was there a ballot and drop box at the subway stations? How did all this work?
