Scope and Content: Photograph of winner of the Best Baby in Burnaby contest, Jesse James Pugsley Cooper seated on the lap of his mother Cheryl Cooper and next to his father, James Cooper. Cheryl is holding the trophy that baby Jesse James won in the contest. The contest was held in September 1986 at Burnaby Village Museum. Judges at the event included Gladys Moore, Jean Mowbray and Marge Eccles.

History: The first contest for Burnaby's Best Baby was held in September 1930. It was sponsored by the Burnaby Broadcast newspaper, with arrangements made by the Victorian Order of Nurses and judging by the Medical Health Officer and School Board doctor. The first winner was Lois Smith, who was presented with the Broadcast Trophy. A few years earlier, in 1922, a province wide "Better Babies Contest" was held at the New Westminster Exhibition. The babies were judged on their health, nutrition and physical form. Margaret Louise Lovell of Vancouver was the first prize winner of a five dollar coin. Burnaby's own Catherine Corker was another provincial winner in the nineteen twenties. In the early nineteen eighties, Burnaby Village Museum revived the contest as "Burnaby's Better Baby Contest" . The contest was run annually by Burnaby Village Museum until 1994 and was also known as "Burnaby's Best Baby Contest" and "Best Baby in Burnaby". The contest was limited to Burnaby residents who were twelve months and younger.
