Miss Beatrice Marshall, who is seen first on the clip was declared the winner of the same title in the woman's category and also received $1000 for her efforts. She clearly shows that femininity and a sense of innocence was paramount in posing for women back then. Her figure, though rather "Rubenesque" to us today, was considered the height of feminine form in 1903.

Hi Gert! :waving:

What impresses me the most, is the muscle control displayed by some of the old time strongmen!

There were no posingrules in those day so they did what they think was best.
