Description

Original circa 1920 anti-suffrage 9.5 x 16.5 broadside offering quotes from The Woman's Bible, edited by Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and asking: "Are you willing for women who hold these views to become political powers in our country?" The broadside takes aim at the Suffragists' conclusion that the "Christian Bible, the Christian religion and the Christian ministry were the greatest obstacles to the spread of woman suffrage," and their suggestion that the Bible be "rewritten from a woman's standpoint." Printed in Raleigh, North Carolina, in 1920. In fine condition.
