- Reason
- The lead up to the USA's hundredth anniversary of women's suffrage continues with Pauline Adams. How about a suffragette who was arrested for protesting, got sentenced to 60 days - then appealed and won. And who, when suffrage passed, decided to qualify as a lawyer. And did? Image is quite nice for the time, and, if you compare the before with the after I'm pretty sure you'll be impressed. Think the shadow on the left is natural, so I've left it in, but reduced it a smidgen. Would have preferred if the cup wasn't cut off, but... not much I can do there without being certain of the cup's shape. Easy to think you know, then discover that you don't.

- @Adam Cuerden: Prison/Jail cups are always made cheaply and simply. This photo is only missing the very top of the cup. No big deal. Geoffroi (talk) 23:47, 30 May 2019 (UTC)
- Support - EV outweighs composition here, I doubt that an equivalent image exists. MER-C 17:07, 30 May 2019 (UTC)
- Support Geoffroi (talk) 23:42, 30 May 2019 (UTC)
- Because of the cut-off cup it should struggle to be FP. Charlesjsharp (talk) 11:37, 31 May 2019 (UTC)
- Support - Strong EV makes up for imperfections in the composition (it would not do, however, to illustrate an article about cups :) ). — Rhododendrites talk \\ 03:37, 7 June 2019 (UTC)
