Description
Alt text: A satirical cartoon postcard titled "The Weaker Sex" in stylized green and purple letters. The illustration shows a tall bride in a purple gown and green veil holding the hand of a tiny groom who barely reaches her knee. To the right, a clergyman holds a book, preparing to give the wedding vows. The text at the bottom says, "Even when you are being married, you're bound to feel like this." An elaborate artist's signature appears near the illustration. Text near the lower border reads, "Copyright 1908 by Walter Wellman, number 3008." A band below the postcard has the text "Palczewski Suffrage Postcard Archive."
