Description
Alt text: A color postcard illustration depicts a woman with an exaggeratedly large head and an open mouth, sitting in a chair and gesturing while talking. She wears a yellow dress and a white lace capelet. In the background, a man is seen escaping through a doorway, covering his ears. An inset image in the upper left shows a phonograph labeled "Potted tongue." Below the illustration, a poem titled "The Talkative Woman" reads: "She's the queen of nonsensical talk, She can make e'en the phonograph balk, If you've ever been stung by her nasty, sharp tongue, you'll fly when she comes — never walk." Small text at the bottom of the illustration reads, "Copyright 1905, Illustrated Post Card and Novelty Company, New York." A band below the postcard has the text "Palczewski Suffrage Postcard Archive."
