Celluloid button with a picture of the Liberty Bell at the center and the words "Liberty Justice 1776-1915." Hanging from the pin are a gold ribbon with the slogan "Votes for Women" printed in black and a small American flag.
This piece was created during the Pennsylvania Liberty Bell Campaign to pass a state suffrage referendum in 1915. Suffragists forged a replica of the Liberty Bell, known as the Justice Bell. The Justice Bell toured Pennsylvania with the clapper chained to its side. The clapper would not ring until women won the vote.

Gold silk ribbon with rolled hem along the top edge and fringe along the bottom edge and black printed text.
The twenty-sixth New York Woman Suffrage Association's annual convention was held in Ithaca, New York, from November 12-14, 1894. Earlier in 1894, New York State held its Constitutional Convention to revise the State constitution, which included a proposed amendment aimed at striking the word "male," and granting the right to vote. The suffragists were denied representation, and female delegates were not allowed.
The NYWSA, with the help of Susan B. Anthony, and the Women's Christian Temperance Union, collected roughly 600,000 signatures in favor of giving women the vote, but the petitions failed to persuade the delegates.
