EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a Votes for Women Satchel, an exceptionally practical bag designed for paper sellers, produced by the Votes for Women Fellowship in April 10th, 1914. The satchel, adorned with the colors of the suffrage movement - purple, white, and red - was a powerful symbol of the women's struggle for social and political emancipation. The Votes for Women Fellowship was a pivotal organization in the suffragette movement, advocating for women's right to vote through various means, including peaceful protests and civil disobedience. The satchel's design was not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional, making it an ideal companion for paper sellers who were an essential part of the suffrage campaign. The satchel's sturdy construction and spacious interior could easily accommodate and protect the numerous pamphlets, leaflets, and other campaign materials that were essential to spreading awareness about the cause. The Votes for Women Satchel is a poignant reminder of the determination and resilience of the suffragettes during their arduous fight for women's rights. The colors of the satchel - purple representing loyalty and dignity, white symbolizing purity, and red signifying courage and sacrifice - reflect the deep-rooted passion and commitment of the women's suffrage movement. This photograph is an invaluable historical artifact that offers a glimpse into the rich history of the women's struggle for equality and the enduring legacy of the suffragettes.
