1 drawing : India ink over graphite underdrawing ; sheet 34.2 x 36.2 cm. Drawing shows men, possibly legislators, climbing a ladder to board a large vehicle labeled "Band Wagon" that's heading towards the U.S. Capitol that has banners and signs saying "Votes for women." A horn blasts "Last call" as some men stand back looking confused. No known restrictions on publication. Caption label from exhibit Shall Not Be Denied: Women Fight for the Vote--Victory, 1918, and Beyond: Jumping on the Bandwagon. Cartoonist Clifford Berryman optimistically predicted in January 1918 that it was the "Last Call" for members of Congress to jump on the suffrage bandwagon. Although premature, he was correct in forecasting growing congressional support. On May 21, 1919, just two days after the 66th Congress convened, the House of Representatives again passed the suffrage bill, this time overwhelmingly--304 yeas to 89 nays, 42 more than needed. Two weeks later, on June 4, 1919, the Senate followed suit. Date supplied by Library staff, based on publication date. (DLC/PP-1945:R1.518) Published in: Washington Evening Star, January 10, 1918.
