21-04-1969

Casino, Amsterdam

When entering the pageant Welmoed did not really care for winnig the Miss Holland crown but winning the first price, a brand new car as her old car had broken down. Around 20 girls parade before the jury in the Casino in Amsterdam. It was Welmoed Hollenberg who won the title, the car and ..... an Afghan hound!! 

At first Welmoed would also go to the Miss International in Japan but it was Maria Lingen who went instead, for reasons we don't know.
