Description
Alt text: A vertical comic postcard titled "Life's little tragedies in three acts." The top panel, labeled "Dance," shows a man in a tuxedo dancing closely with a woman in a yellow dress. The middle panel, labeled "Chance," shows the man on one knee proposing to the woman who is seated in a large chair. The bottom panel, labeled "Pants," shows the woman on the right and a man on the left pulling on opposite ends of a pair of trousers, representing the competition of who will wear the pants in the relationship. An elaborate artist's signature is in the lower left corner. Text near the lower border reads, "Copyright 1909 by Walter Wellman, series L." A band below the postcard has the text "Palczewski Suffrage Postcard Archive."
