Summary
But at this London venue there was no need to wait for beauty to blossom. It was abundant. Over 60 superb specimens of femininity from all over the Globe were after the title: "Miss World, 1968". They were stunning, but, in the opinion of the judges, the fairest of them all was 18-year-old blonde Australian, Penny Plummer.
