Description: | This early 1900s board game came from the maternal grandparents of the donor, Mrs. D. Fuller from Enfield. Entitled 'Suffragettes In and Out of Prison ', the rules of the game are based on the political activities of the Suffragettes, the women's movement whose radical approach gained women the vote. Each player is represented by a small wooden piece in the form of a Suffragette and from the wording on the playing cards, it seems likely that this game was designed to be enjoyed by both adults and children alike. The player whose Suffragette reached the end of the spiral course first, avoiding the forfeit spaces entitled ‘Policeman’ ‘Wardress’ and ‘Open Door’, won the game. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Enfield Museum Service | Rights holder: | Enfield Museum Service | Subjects: | Leisure | Temporal: | c.1900s | Source: | Enfield Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
