THE NEW YORK TIMES, July 22, 1923 Page one has the significant reporting from Seneca Falls, New York, site of the Woman's Rights convention which was celebrating the 75th anniversary of the first woman's rights convention held in 1848.
The one column headlines read: "Woman Adopt Form For Equal Rights" "National Party Accepts Proposed Wording of Amendment to Constitution" "Called World Movement" "New York State Branch of the Party Elects Mrs. Clarence M. Smith President" (see).
the amendment would be known as the "Lucretia Mott Amendment" an early suffragist who first introduced the amendment in 1848. The Amendment was introduced in every session of Congress since 1923 until it was approved, in reworded form, in 1972. The coverage takes three-quarters of a column on the front page and carries over to page 4.
The issue is the complete Sunday edition with over 100 pages. Some binding slits at the blank spine margin, even toning, otherwise in quite nice condition.
