International Teen Princess / World Teen Princess

This pageant began in 1966 in Chicago, Illinois, where it was held for four years.  Its name was changed to World Teen Princess and held four times in European locations, and apparently was discontinued after the 1974 pageant in Venezuela.

Sincere thanks to all who contributed to this page!
