Edward Lear’s Limericks and Women’s Suffrage

The London Museum website has a number of postcards on women’s suffrage clearly derived from Edward Lear’s originals.

 

Thanks to the indefatigable limerick researcher Doug Harris.

    Thanks for the compliment Marco! A wee typo in your subject line – ‘suffrege’ should be ‘suffrage’. 😊

    Cheers,

    Doug
