'Press Carts' delivering Votes for Women to various pitches in central London, July 1911. Women undertaking such 'unwomanly' and 'unsexing' activities such as this made strong and often unfavourable impression on passers-by. All the women in this photograph would have been dressed in and carrying accessories of purple, white and green to maxmize their impact. The poster advertising this issue refers to a Mrs Napolitano. Members of the public enquired about the woman, and drove off to Clement's Inn to sign a petition for her pardon.
