Royal Photo Co. - 1912

Five women, identified as Mrs. Lois Jones, Mrs. Fred Rowe, Mrs. C.B. Hamilton, Mrs. W. F. Blake, and Mrs. Huntley Russell, work in the office for Women's Suffrage, and the postman at the left brings mail. Four of the women wear white blouses, and Mrs. Jones, wearing a dress, is seated in a swivel office chair, at the left and Mrs. Blake on the right both work at roll-top desks while Mrs. Hamilton in the center is seated at a desk with a large flat surface. A small table on the right holds a typewriter, to its left is a wall calendar with an illustration of a woman, and a portrait of an unidentified man hangs on the wall above the roll-top desk. A pennant with "Votes for Women" hangs from the light fixture, and another sign with the same message is in the windows. A pile of papers sits on the floor below the calendar.
