Real Photographic Suffragette Postcard, Original.
Suffragettes' Parade. March 3rd 1913. Washington DC: Women Representing Foreign Countries
(I. & M. Ottenheimer, Baltimore, MD., 1913).
An original real photographic postcard for collectors of original suffragette / Votes for Women memorabilia. On March 3, 1913, the National American Woman Suffrage Association - NAWSA - organised a woman suffrage parade and demonstration in Washington DC. (Pennsylvania Avenue). It was timed to coordinate with Woodrow Wilson's presidential inauguration, the following day. The marchers were jeered and attacked, and had to fight their way through the mob, and the resulting publicity focused the country's attention on the issue of Woman Suffrage. This is an original, contemporary postcard, issued at the time, and shows suffragette women in costume, representing different foreign countries. Photo by Harris-Ewing. On the back of the card, there's a handwritten contemporary message in ink: 'This was taken at 2nd Street - that is the reason they took such a good photo'. The card has not been posted and there is no stamp or postmark. Rear is a little browned and darkened, naturally with age. Postcard. Front of card slightly soiled, and lower right hand corner has suffered damage, the area of a thumb, with actual loss to the photo. Edges & corners slightly worn. Overall good. pp. Order No. NSBK-C15727
Keywords: suffragette ephemera, suffragette postcards, history, original postcards, women's suffrage, suffragettes, woman suffrage, Votes for Women, women's movement, antiquarian, parade, procession, antiquarian, American, United States of America, USA, Washington, collectible, National American Woman Suffrage Association
