“Gaby Deslys as a Jiu-jitsu Artist” (1907)
French music hall star Gaby Deslys – famous for her “Jiujitsu Waltz” – is shown throwing Sorekichi Eida in this 1907 publicity photo. Note that the term “Jap” held no pejorative meaning in Edwardian English, being more in the nature of a simple abbreviation like “Brit” for British.
