EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Sheffield Local Studies Library takes us back in time to a significant moment in history - the National Women's Social and Political Union's Suffrage Sunday excursion to London, circa 1913. The image showcases a group of determined women, suffragettes at heart, eagerly preparing for their journey towards the capital city. The poster displayed prominently in the foreground catches our attention with its bold typography: "Tickets from Wilson, Peck and Co. , Pinstone Street, Sheffield". This local company played an instrumental role in supporting this empowering movement by providing tickets for this historic event. However, it is important to note that commercial use should not be mentioned here. Amongst these brave women stand posters advocating for equal rights and justice. These powerful messages serve as a visual representation of their unwavering commitment towards achieving suffrage for all women. Their determination shines through their eyes as they embark on this extraordinary journey together. Preserved meticulously by the Sheffield City Archives, this photograph offers us a glimpse into an era where courageous individuals fought tirelessly against societal norms to secure basic human rights. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come since then while acknowledging that there is still work to be done towards achieving true equality for all genders.
