Bathing Beauty Contest on Wrightsville Beach, NC for the Feast of Pirates. The photograph reveals that several of the girls in the contest were sponsored by Efirds Department Store and one by Atlantic Beach. The Feast of Pirates ran for three days in August 1927-1929. The festival was discontinued due to the economic downturn of the Great Depression, as well as participants becoming too rowdy for the authorities in downtown Wilmington, NC.
