Description
Alt text: A vintage cartoon postcard titled "The Suffragette Studentess" at the top shows a woman rocking back on a chair with her feet on a table, which holds a book titled "How to be a man." She is smoking a pipe and blowing smoke rings that look like diamond engagement rings. The far wall holds a poster reading, "Gaiety theatre. Wine, man and song," and two pennants reading, "Princesston" and "Yell." A caption below the image reads, "I wanter be a man!" The bottom border has the text, "Copyright 1909 by Walter Wellman. Number 4007." An elaborate artist's signature is also shown near the illustration. A band below the postcard has the text "Palczewski Suffrage Postcard Archive."
