Description

Alt text: A horizontal vintage postcard features a man and a woman in a humorous role-reversal scene. On the left, a man in a striped shirt sits in a chair reading a newspaper with the headline "The Times - February 14 - women have the vote." On the right, a woman in a blue dress and hat kneels on a yellow cushion, pleading with the man. Centered between them is a poem that begins "My valentine" and continues "if I can vote, why not propose? if I am bold you must excuse me. I've loved you ages, goodness knows! And don't you dare, sir, to refuse me." Small red hearts decorate the corners and the space around the text. A band below the postcard has the text "Palczewski Suffrage Postcard Archive."
