EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph captures a moment of wit and social commentary during the early days of the women's suffrage movement in the United States. The image, circa 1909, depicts two men observing a man dressed as a suffragette, carrying a sandwich board bearing the insignia of the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW). The suffragette's sandwich board reads, "Votes for Women," a powerful message that resonated with the suffrage movement's call for women's right to vote. As the suffragette passes by, one of the men quips, "There ain't much in that sandwich, Arry," to which his companion replies, "No, but there's plenty of mustard." This exchange plays on the double meaning of the word "sandwich," as the men use the term to refer both to the suffragette's sign and the edible sandwich they are holding. The men's casual dismissal of the suffragette's message highlights the societal norms and attitudes of the time, which often trivialized women's demands for the right to vote. However, their use of humor also underscores the growing awareness and curiosity surrounding the suffrage movement. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the complexities of the suffrage movement and the various ways it was perceived and discussed in the public sphere. It serves as a reminder of the resilience and determination of the suffragettes, who continued to fight for their cause despite facing numerous challenges and setbacks.
