A squelcher for women's suffrage

A squelcher for women's suffrage

Library of Congress

Print shows a woman being denied the opportunity to vote because she is wearing a dress and a hat that are too wide for the narrow booths labeled "Ballots Must Be Prepared In These Booths" where the ballots are marked. A policeman is standing on the left, and, in the background, election officials are standing over the ballot box for "Election District No. 13".
