Votes for Women Mug
TEMPORARILY OUT OF STOCK

Mrs. Alva Erksine Smith Vanderbilt Belmont (1853-1933) was first married to William K. Vanderbilt in 1875. At the time of her divorce, she came under the influence of Anna Howard Shaw, a noted suffragist and worked the rest of her life with the most militant groups of the suffrage movement. The Votes For Women motto was used in 1909 at the famous suffrage open house at Marble House in Newport Rhode Island.

This mug is a reproduction of the service used during that open house. Dishwasher and microwave safe.

Dimensions: 4" tall. Matching plate and tea towel also available.
