Woman suffrage headquarters, 1912. - Historical Snapshots

Black and white historical photo of the Woman Suffrage Headquarters in Ohio. The large sign above the entrance reads 'WOMAN SUFFRAGE HEADQUARTERS. MEN OF OHIO! Give The Women A Square Deal Vote For Amendment Nº23 On September 3-1912.' Below, another sign says 'COME IN AND LEARN WHY WOMEN OUGHT TO VOTE.' A group of women in early 20th-century attire, including hats and long skirts, are gathered outside the entrance, some conversing, while one holds a banner.
