This scrapbook consists of press cuttings and ephemera. The album is subtitled 'The Fight as I saw it' and is subdivided into two sections: 1905-1918 and 1918-1928. In addition to press cuttings, the earlier section includes a rich collection of suffrage ephemera comprising a wide range of material: a paper rosette worn in a procession, tickets, invitation cards, a serviette, pamphlets, programmes, postcards, stamps and fliers. The later section covers subjects such as women's work in the First World War, Scottish Women's Hospitals, women in Parliament and obituaries of Emily Davies. It consists mainly of press cuttings and printed ephemera but also included are postcards of the Bimbo Toy Factory; a postcard of 'The London Suffragist' ambulance; and an original photograph of Emily Davies. Also included are two letters from Millicent Garret Fawcett to Mrs Graves.
