Historically interesting eisteddfodau

Anti-suffragette 'voodoo' doll

This anti-suffragette 'voodoo' doll is an unflattering and grotesque caricature of a suffrage campaigner. The anti-suffrage movement used images such as this in cartoons and posters to ridicule and insult women who wanted the right to vote.

Good evening,
I was lucky enough to buy a South African Eisteddfod chair, in Pretoria. It is dated 1937 and I cannot find any details about it , or others.
Can you help?
