The tell is the costume: dress that recalls eighteenth-century messengers borrows the standing of an earlier era for a present-day ballot appeal, alongside plain voting instructions. - **Date:** 1915 - **Period:** [First World War](https://propagandaarchive.org/collection/#era=wwi) - **Made by:** "New Jersey Next" Campaign Committee of New York Suffragists - **Region:** [North America](https://propagandaarchive.org/collection/#region=north-america) - **Country:** [United States](https://propagandaarchive.org/collection/#country=united-states) - **Medium:** [Stamp](https://propagandaarchive.org/collection/#medium=stamp) - **Issuer type:** [Movement](https://propagandaarchive.org/collection/#actor=movement) - **Regime:** [Wilson Administration](https://propagandaarchive.org/collection/#regime=wilson-administration) - **Leader:** [Woodrow Wilson](https://propagandaarchive.org/collection/#leader=woodrow-wilson) - **Audience:** [Domestic public](https://propagandaarchive.org/collection/#audience=domestic-public) - **Purpose:** [Persuade or win support](https://propagandaarchive.org/collection/#purpose=persuade-support) - **Themes:** [Gender and suffrage](https://propagandaarchive.org/collection/#theme=gender-suffrage), [Elections and party politics](https://propagandaarchive.org/collection/#theme=elections-party-politics) - **Event:** [US Woman Suffrage Campaign](https://propagandaarchive.org/collection/#event=us-woman-suffrage-campaign) - **Techniques:** [Transfer](https://propagandaarchive.org/techniques/transfer/) - **Regime:** [Wilson administration](https://propagandaarchive.org/regimes/wilson-administration/) - **Leader:** [Woodrow Wilson](https://propagandaarchive.org/regimes/wilson-administration/#woodrow-wilson) - **Source:** Identified Openly sourced: the speaker is who they say they are - **Source:** [Smithsonian Open Access (National Museum of American History)](https://n2t.net/ark:/65665/bq99ca746b5-a93a-704b-e053-15f76fa0b4fa), retrieved September 29, 2026 - **Rights:** CC0 (Smithsonian Open Access); US work published 1915, public domain Woman Suffrage Stamp, 1915.
