What you’re looking at
This page contains three distinct elements: **Top left: Usher's Whisky advertisement** featuring a classical female figure representing the product's "standard of excellence." **Bottom left: Political cartoon titled "Study in Expression"** satirizing the suffragette movement. It depicts a man (labeled a suffragette) receiving news that his wife has been sentenced to six weeks in jail—likely for suffrage activism. The joke targets male suffragists or husbands of suffragists, mocking their distressed reaction to their wives' legal consequences for political protest. **Right side: Two advertisements** for Old Hampshire Bond paper (emphasizing authentic versus counterfeit products) and Dr. Thorne's Idea (a book by J.A. Mitchell). The cartoon reflects early 20th-century resistance to women's suffrage, using humor to ridicule the movement and those associated with it.
