Card Game - The Game of Suffragette
The Game of Suffragette was devised and produced by the Kensington branch of the Womens Social & Political Union. It was announced in the November 1907 issue of the Unions publication, Votes for Women. Although it may be recommended as a novel form of propaganda, let it not be thought that there is no fun in it. The game consisted of sets of cards including Broken Promises, The Career of the Suffragettes, Pie Crust Principles and The Sensational Press. There are portrait cards and others with line illustrations, each has the Haunted House image, by David Wilson on the reverse. David Wilson, (1873-1935) produced the dark and brooding image of the woman a top the Houses of Parliament for the Daily Chronicle in April 1907. It was then used as the front cover illustration for the first issue of Votes for Women in October 1907. Also includes a copy of the original rules. Date: 1907

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a vintage set of Suffragette cards, titled "The Game of Suffragette," produced by the Kensington branch of the Women's Social & Political Union in 1907. The game was announced in the November issue of their publication, Votes for Women, and although it served as a formidable propaganda tool, it was not devoid of enjoyment. The set includes various categories of cards such as "Broken Promises," "The Career of the Suffragettes," "Pie Crust Principles," and "The Sensational Press." Each card features a Haunted House image by David Wilson on the reverse. Wilson's haunting and evocative image of a woman atop the Houses of Parliament, created for the Daily Chronicle in April 1907, was later used as the front cover illustration for the inaugural issue of Votes for Women in October 1907. This game was an essential part of the suffragette movement, providing both education and entertainment as they continued their relentless pursuit of women's rights and suffrage.
