The Suffragette. “I told you so.” [Postcard]
Copyright 1909, by Walter Wellman
The poster reads:
“The Morning Suffragette Bulletin.
A New Era of Prosperity at Hand.
With the news that a suffragette has been elected as our next presidentess, several flatiron and rolling pin factories have resumed on full time.
It is stated that 10,000,000 faltirons have been ordered by the new War Department alone.”
Card reads:
“If you will only marry me you can have all woman’s rights
Such as staying up on evenings when I’m out late at nights
And should such things not satisfy the longings of your soul
You can wash up all the dishes and carry all the coal
As a really model husband I feel I’m bound to shine
So say that you take me to be Your Valentine”

I am delighted to see still another site that recognizes the importance of imagery in suffrage era postcards and posters. You may be interested in my website on suffrage cards, buttons, papers, china, ribbons, etc. at womansuffragememorabilia.com
