1981 - A souvenir picture for all the bonny baby contest prize winners and their proud mums in May 1981
Bonnie baby competitions have been around for decades, with proud parents from across the UK competing for the honour of having the cutest offspring in the land.
This tradition has been passed down from each generation, with modern iterations, such as the Evening Express Little Leopards competition, allowing families to capture their children growing up.
Prizes such as cash and canvases would be on offer, alongside a trophy for the winner.
