The title given here is Suffragette Ball, paired with a dance labeled Gr. Cymball, though the caption supplied by the Bain News Service is unverified and the record carries no date. Suffrage balls were fundraising and publicity gatherings in the 1910s, when votes for women was a pressing national question in the United States. The picture belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, glass negatives made by a New York agency that sold news images to newspapers in the early twentieth century. Such plates preserve the staging and costumes of events like this one.
