EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of amusement and satire in Rahway, New Jersey during the late 19th century. A crowd of onlookers gathers to witness a peculiar parade, where men dressed in Mother Hubbards and striped stockings march through the streets. This spectacle was an attempt to ridicule Belva Lockwood's presidential campaign on the Equal Rights ticket in 1884. The contemporary wood engraving showcases the lively atmosphere as spectators line up along the procession route, some holding parasols to shield themselves from the sun. The scene reflects a time when political campaigns were not only serious affairs but also opportunities for creative expression and social commentary. Belva Lockwood, a progressive candidate advocating for equal rights for women, faced significant opposition during her bid for presidency. The men donning Mother Hubbard dresses and striped stockings aimed to mock her campaign by challenging traditional gender roles and highlighting societal sexism. This image serves as a reminder of the struggles faced by women during this era in their fight for equality and recognition. It also sheds light on how individuals used art forms like satire to express dissenting opinions about important political issues. Preserved by The Granger Collection in New York, this photograph offers us a glimpse into history—a snapshot of an era marked by both progress and resistance towards gender equality.
