Explain to me "Junior Stock"

As a kid I started going to the drags in the 70s and everything was Stock or Super Stock. Having an older brother with gear head friends along with always reading old car magazines I've always heard or read the term "Junior Stock" but never quite understood the true meaning.

Stock and Super Stock rules have always loosened up as time has gone on so where was Junior Stock in relationship to Pure Stock back in the 60s?

I love history and would like to understand the true evolution of Stock Class racing!

Thanks for your input!!
