The New York State Woman Suffrage Party was a local branch of the National American Woman Suffrage Association, which formed as the result of a national convention of suffrage groups in 1890. In addition to protesting and organizing, the Woman Suffrage Party also published literature including magazines and pamphlets to inform suffragettes on news of the movement and recruit people to the cause. This booklet was aimed at young and old readers alike, laying out the case for suffrage in nursery rhymes that anyone could grasp. Eight years after this was published, the 19th Amendment was ratified, securing the right to vote for women nationwide.
