This book presents an archive of Carnival Queens Contests from the Black Country America. Each Queen stands with a posed smile and stance, dressed in their outfit for the event. Both the colour and black and white photographs capture the nature of these contests, with the typical fabrics, colours and lighting. This series was collected and edited by Erik Kessels.
