Item Description

New FRAMED poster collage by Michael Albert.

www.MichaelAlpert.com

Title is "The 19th Amendment." This amendment gave women the right to vote.  Signed by the artist and dated 2019. Excellent condition. The image is 20" by 30" and the poster is 24" by 36".

The poster is an amazing collage amalgam of images of women from packaging and the media. There are images from Betty Crocker to the Girl Scouts to Pocahontas and every other image in between. A feast for the eyes.

The poster states:
"The 19 Amendment The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States of America or by any state on account of sex. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate proposed legislation on June 4, 1919. Ratified on Aug 18, 1920."
