1p., 12mo. In good condition, on aged and worn paper, folded twice. Written in a late Victorian or Edwardian hand. The 'Address' is an interesting survival: the sort of ribald saloon-bar joke through which male opponents of the movement sought to tame it through ridicule. Similar examples survive, attributed to Lady Astor speaking in parliament, but this version clearly predates these. Here is a transcript of what is a concentrated dose of double-entendre: 'Mrs. Pankhursts Address to the Suffragettes | Ladies | We have met tonight to pass the following resolutions: - | I That we mean to have all that the men have got. | II That we are willing to take it gently & smoothly. | III That if they want friction they can have it | IV We shall not take it lying down but standing up with our backs to the wall. | V If we cannot get it through our organisations we will have it through our combinations | VI We do not want to be poked up in the strangers gallery, but we want to be down on the floor of the house with the members. | Loud cheers.' Included with the item are two small contemporary black and white photographs of Victorian or Edwardian women, both around the size of a passport photograph (3cm square). The older woman bears a resemblance to Emmeline Pankhurst and the younger to her daughter Sylvia Pankhurst. See Image.

A very good set. $2,500. * Named after the English suffragist Emmeline Pankhurst [1858-1928], Panko was produced by the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU) to raise funds for its activities and publicize its goals. "The translation of the mechanics of the women's suffrage campaign into board and card games was a masterstroke.Not only were funds raised, but the message of the cause was brought into domestic circles where more rabid propaganda might not have been welcomed. . The advertisement for the game claimed, 'Not only is each picture in itself an interesting memento, but the game produces intense excitement without the slightest taint of bitterness'" (Crawford). The cards were illustrated by Edward Tennyson Reed, best-known for his illustrations for Punch. They reflect some of the key moments and characters in the Suffrage movement, such as Pankhurst wearing her WSPU sash, a Suffragist being escorted to a police station, a group of Suffragists trying to gain entry to the House of Commons, a Suffragist declaring a hunger strike in jail and an image of the attorney Christabel Pankhurst [1880-1958], Emmeline's daughter, addressing the viewer in her robes.
