LAhistory
A hundred years ago, on October 10, 1911, California voters passed an amendment giving women the right. California was the sixth state to give women the right to vote, nine years before the 19th Amendment enfranchised women nationally. From the California Secretary of State, “This poster was designed by Bertha Margaret Boye for the 1911 California campaign and was probably the most popular poster produced during the Amer woman suffrage movement.”
