Votes for Women Valentine—No Votes, No Hearts

Votes for Women Valentine—No Votes, No Hearts
A die-cut Valentine greeting card with a suffragette girl giving a soapbox speech about women's voting rights. It wasn't until the ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution in 1920 that all women in the United States had the right to vote.

For another copy of this card, see "No Votes No Hearts," Comic Valentine, ca. 1910-1920 over on Flickr.

Votes for Women—No Votes, No Hearts.

If words could tell of all the love within this heart of mine.
I'd keep on speaking till I'd won you for my Valentine.
