Part of Alice Riggs Hunt fonds.
A ceramic match holder featuring a gaggle of three geese standing in the grass with their heads raised and likely honking. Underneath the grass is an inscription that reads, “We want our Votes!” The match holder was likely created to make an anti-suffrage statement that equates suffragists with “silly geese.” The match holder was possibly made by Schafer & Vater, German makers of small ceramic items between 1910 and 1914.
The match holder was purchased by Anne Anderson Perry, a member of the Women’s Suffrage Association in Manitoba as table decoration for an event. Perry later gifted the match holder to Valance St. Just Patriarche, who worked as a movie censor at the time and who was against women receiving the vote. Valance held onto the item for several years and then it was offered to Special Collections & Archives as part of the Lady Aberdeen collection. While it is currently listed as part of the Alice Riggs Hunt fonds, it is unclear how it came to be associated with this fonds.
