Description
Alt text: A color satirical postcard titled "When Women Vote: Washing Day." Text appears in the background reading, "Notice to fathers: Wash your shirts with Sud's Soap. Husband Working Hours 3 a.m to 12 p.m. Monday, washing day; Tuesday, darning; Wednesday, cleaning; Thursday, scrubbing; Friday, marketing; Saturday, work of any sort; Sunday, more work." In the foreground, three women sit at a table smoking cigarettes, playing cards, and eating chocolates. One woman says, "Yes! My old man is a lazy old wretch." In the background, visible through a doorway, an exhausted-looking man in an apron washes clothes in a tub while holding a crying baby. A circular logo in the lower right reads, "A E and E W." A band below the postcard has the text "Palczewski Suffrage Postcard Archive."
