Black on pink on white pinback. White back paper contains the name of the manufacturer.

The primary anti-suffrage organizations that may have distributed this button were the Massachusetts Association Opposed to the Further Extension of Suffrage (later the Anti-Suffrage Association of Massachusetts) and/or the National Association Opposed to Women Suffrage.
