Belle Case La Follette, a lawyer and longtime suffragist, appears here beside a "Votes for Women" automobile, a vehicle that carried the message of the suffrage movement onto city streets. Campaign cars like this one were a common tactic in the 1910s, when activists drove from town to town to hand out literature, collect signatures and speak at street corners. La Follette was married to Wisconsin politician Robert M. La Follette and was known for her own public work on women's rights. The scene shows how suffragists turned everyday public spaces into places for political argument.
