EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the first time women were able to exercise their right to vote in Britain. Taken on December 14,1918, during the General Election, this image symbolizes the hard-fought battle for suffrage that women had been engaged in for years. The photograph showcases a diverse group of women standing proudly beside a ballot box, ready to cast their votes. Their faces reflect determination and hope as they participate in this political event that would shape the future of their country. The significance of this milestone is palpable through the lens of time. Published in "The Silver Jubilee Book - The Story of 25 Eventful Years in Pictures" by Odhams Press Ltd.
