EDITORS COMMENTS
This souvenir print commemorates the historic Women's Suffrage March and Mass Meeting that took place at the Albert Hall on June 13, 1908. The demonstration began with a march from the Embankment, where thousands of suffragettes, led by the National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies (NUWSS), gathered to demand the right to vote. The procession made its way through the streets of London, drawing attention to their cause and inspiring support from onlookers. Upon reaching the Albert Hall, the suffragettes were greeted by an enthusiastic crowd, eager to hear the speeches of prominent figures in the women's rights movement. Among the esteemed speakers were Lady Henry Somerset, Lady Frances Balfour, and Mrs. Fawcett. Their powerful words resonated with the crowd, fueling their determination to secure the vote for women. This beautiful souvenir, decorated with intricately designed pink intertwined flowers, was published by Mrs. S. Burgess at her establishment located on Artillery Lane in Bishopsgate, London. The original crepe paper and tissue print serves as a testament to the passion and perseverance of the suffragettes, who would not rest until their voices were heard and their rights were recognized.
