Miss New York Experience

This 1975 photo from JET magazine might represent a one-off title, because I can find no photos of other winners.

Arguably, to represent the true experience of NYC circa 1975, this charming young woman should have featured a much different, ah, seedier look.

Miss New York Experience lived in Los Angeles? Guess they couldn't find a local worthy of the title.

@Alex: more likely they couldn't find a local willing to put up with the bull.
