"Miss Subways" was a title accorded to individual New York City women between 1941 and 1976. The woman who was Miss Subways at any one time appeared on posters placed on New York City Subway trains, along with a brief description of her. In 1957, it was estimated that 5.9 million people viewed Miss Subways daily, using 14,000 placards within trains. The program was run by the New York Subways Advertising Company. Around 200 women held the title during the program's run.==Selection==The method of selecting Miss Subways varied over time, typically taking the form of a beauty contest with the general rule that to be eligible, a woman had to be a New York City resident and herself use the subway. "John Robert Powers, the head of the modeling agency, selected the winners" until 1961 or 1962 and later "for some years, winners were chosen by the contest organizers.""Until 1952 there was a new Miss S() appearing ... every month" and between 1952 and 1957 "only six a year have been picked, each to reign for two months." Although "Mr. Powers once picked seven winners to reign side by side in the subway." By 1957:All Miss Subways have one thing in common. They look – or are supposed to look – like the girl next door. About 400 wholesome young things enter each of the three yearly contests. The winners are picked by John Robert Powers model agency millionaire. Mr. Powers says he wants “no glamour gal types or hand-painted masterpieces.” Professional models, actresses and entertainers are taboo. Anyone else over 17 may enter.The Misses Subways have been secretaries, service women, nurses, sales girls, receptionists.John Robert Powers was no longer involved in selection by 1963 when the contest changed to "public vote ... by post card" and the New York Subways Advertising Company "redirected the contest to reflect the girl who works – what New York City is all about.” Winners were given bracelets with gold-plated (later, silver-plated) subway tokens." Spaulding commented in 1971 that “Prettiness per se is passe. It’s personality and interest pursuits that count" and described how "each contest attracts between 300 and 400 entries, submitted by family, friends and colleagues. About 30 are selected for a personal interview 'to judge personality and make certain that the submitted picture is a good likeness.' Most of the winners have been stenographers, clerks, receptionists and some have been teachers and stewardesses."Subsequent to the postcard system, winners were usually chosen by telephone-based voting, from among a group of nominees whose photos were all placed on the subways. Title holders were photographed by photographers such as James J. Kriegsmann who "specialized in pictures of stage and screen stars, but he also photographed ordinary people, including the women who appeared in the Miss Subways promotion for more than 30 years." In 2004, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, in conjunction with the ''New York Post'', brought back the program, now named "Ms. Subways", for one year only. A voting contest was held to determine the winner, Caroline Sanchez-Bernat, an actress. Posters of "Ms. Subways" appeared with subway safety tips instead of biographical notes.
