Description

Alt text: A vintage cartoon postcard titled "The Suffragette Copess" at the top shows a woman in a stylized police outfit strolling down a sidewalk, swinging a rolling pin instead of a nightstick. A smiling man stands in the street and is looking at her with a wink in his eye. A caption below the image reads, "How'd yer like ter be pinched?" The bottom border has the text, "Copyright 1909 by Walter Wellman. Number 4004." An elaborate artist's signature is also shown near the illustration. A band below the postcard has the text "Palczewski Suffrage Postcard Archive."
