This postcard comes from a series depicting various holds from the art of ju-jitsu. This card is labelled, "'Ju-jitsu' Defence for Ladies". Florence Flossie Le Mar would become a star with the same kind of display in the film The Lady and the Hooligan. This film showed all around New Zealand around 1910 - including a show in Palmerston North at the Zealandia Hall.
