Description
Alt text: A color cartoon flyer depicts a woman with large glasses and an elaborate yellow hat decorated with flowers and feathers. She wears a yellow sash that reads "Women's rights" and holds a ballot near a ballot box. At the top, a row of voting booths shows only the legs of women inside. To the left, three small children are shown as being neglected. Below the illustration is a poem titled, "To a Modern Woman." The poem reads, "You've got the vote and you think it's your mission, to go to the polls like a bum politician. And while you are voting, your husband must roam for something to eat which he cant' find at home. He's getting dyspepsia and can't work for pain, your children neglected, ask for you in vain. While you make speeches from a broken soap box, your family is wearing soiled clothes and torn socks." Small text at the bottom reads, "Made in U. S. A." A band below has the text "Palczewski Suffrage Postcard Archive."
