caption: SUFFRAGETTE ''Sandwich Woman'' wears the advertising sign of the periodical ''Votes for Women'' (newly founded by Frederick and Emmeline Pethick-Lawrence), a newspaper of the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU), the women's emancipation movement born to get women the right to vote. The activist offers a copy from the wad he holds in his hand and is portrayed here in a studio photo, but the volunteers who carried out the actual distribution on the streets did so at their own risk, exposing themselves to harassment from passers-by and arrest with the excuse of "obstruction of the sidewalk". Great Britain, 1907.
