EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this vintage print from the Birmingham Press Club Ball on November 26th, 1971, we see Michael Prince, a well-known ATV announcer, and Miss Lesley Goldie, a television actress, graciously accepting cigarettes from two elegant cigarette girls - Mrs. Diana Wolfe and Miss Val Moran. This snapshot offers a glimpse into the vibrant world of journalism and media during the 1970s in Birmingham. The event was not only an opportunity for professionals in the industry to come together but also served as a platform for promoting local news organizations and fostering connections within the community. In an era when smoking was more socially accepted than it is today, cigarettes were often seen as symbols of sophistication and glamour. As such, these cigarette girls played an important role in marketing tobacco products at events like this one. It's worth noting that this image should not be used for commercial purposes due to copyright restrictions. However, it serves as a valuable piece of history that reflects both the changing attitudes towards smoking and the evolving landscape of journalism. As we look back on this moment frozen in time by the Birmingham Post and Mail Archive's Memory Lane Prints collection, let us appreciate how far our society has come while cherishing these glimpses into our past.
