SUSAN B. ANTHONY
(1820 - 1906) American reformer active in suffrage, temperance and abolitionist movements instrumental in obtaining women the right to vote. Excellent content A.Q.S., on both sides of a 2 1/4" x 3 3/4" card, March 2, (18)82. Recto reads "Perfect equality of rights for Women; civil and political Susan B. Anthony Rochester N.Y." The verso reads "Spending this year 1882 at Tenafly, New Jersey, at work on the history of women suffrage. S.B.A." At this time Anthony was most probably working on the monumental book "History of Woman Suffrage" with fellow suffragette Elizabeth Cady Stanton, who owned a home in Tenafly. Light rub on the word "Jersey", else fine.
