Produced to advertise Stone's suffrage newspaper Woman's Journal likely in 1918 celebrating the century mark of her birth. By then the paper had been purchased by Carrie Chapman Catt's Leslie Woman Suffrage Commission and renamed The Woman Citizen but continued to carry "The Woman's Journal Founded 1870" in the masthead as a celebration of the publications deep suffrage roots. Only the fifth we've seen in our 55 years.
