Description
Alt text: A cartoon-like vintage color postcard shows a young girl walking with a defiant stride, carrying a sign reading, "Votes for wimmen" on her shoulder. The girl wears a white dress with a dark belt and trim, and brown stockings. City buildings are visible in the background. Text below the image reads in red and black alternating letters: What us girls want are laws, to make the boys come see us more often. The artist's signature reads "Cobb X. Shinn" and includes the copyright "1912, T. P. Company, New York." A band below the postcard has the text "Palczewski Suffrage Postcard Archive."
