February 1913. “Woman suffrage — hikers arriving in Washington from New York.” Today marks the 90th anniversary of the 19th Amendment to the Constitution, which granted women the right to vote. Over the next few days we’ll post some more suffrage photos. Harris & Ewing glass negative.
The best part is zooming in on the photo. Check out this woman, staring right at the camera.
