Abstract

Postcards that take comic aim at the changing roles of women in the early twentieth century. One depicts a woman from 1836 with a large hoop skirt and and woman from 1908 with a comparably large hat - "the ways of women are past finding out". Another shows a women going through her sleeping husband's pants pockets in search of change; "first chance I've had to take a little change".
