The Awakening
Voting period ends on 1 Mar 2016  at 16:10:20 (UTC)
 * Reason:Shows the spread of Women's Suffrage across America in a very engaging way. The poem by Alice Duer Miller adds a fair bit of interest, and this image has been the main illustration on the artist's page since late 2014, albeit in a much lower-quality copy.
 * Articles in which this image appears:Henry "Hy" Mayer, Timeline of women's suffrage, Cartographic propaganda, Alice Duer Miller (this one's new), and Puck (magazine) (last is a gallery).
 * FP category for this image:Featured pictures/History/USA History
 * Creator:Henry "Hy" Mayer, restored by Adam Cuerden. Does "Hy" really count as a nickname, or is that just like the old Wm as short for William type of traditional abbreviations?
