Description
Alt text: A vintage cartoon postcard titled "The Suffragette" at the top shows a woman with wearing a purple and green gown. She is holding a rolling pin. The room around her is a mess of damage. A broken "God bless our home" sign is on the wall, the wallpaper is torn, and glass is strewn on the floor, along with a flatiron. Her husband lies prone at her feet, with bumps on his head. A caption below the image reads, "I can heartily recommend my wife for the office of Secretaryess of War. She's a born scrapper. Yours, Ben A. Bused." The bottom border has the text, "Copyright 1909 by Walter Wellman." An elaborate artist's signature is also shown near the illustration. A band below the postcard has the text "Palczewski Suffrage Postcard Archive."
