Description
Alt text: A vintage cartoon postcard titled "The Suffragette" at the top shows a young woman wearing a fancy patterned gown. She is gesturing toward a large poster that reads, "To Whom it may Concern. This is to notify you that I am running for Senatoress on the Sufragette ticket. I believe in a reduction of the tariff on Paris gowns. I believe there should be a cut in sheath gowns. I believe in a reduction of the duties on women. Correspondence solicited from the trusts. I'm just 16. Yours for votes." A caption below the image reads, "For Senatoress." The bottom border has the text, "Copyright 1909 by Walter Wellman. Number 4003." An elaborate artist's signature is also shown near the illustration. A band below the postcard has the text "Palczewski Suffrage Postcard Archive."
