Postcard titled: "Whakarewarewa: Cooking in a Steam Hole". The Wide Wide World Series, Maori Life no.736.
Printed on reverse of postcard: "Maoris cooking in a steam hole. The Maoris in New Zealand number about 40,000. They belong to the Polynesians, and tradition has it that they came to New Zealand about 30 generations ago from Hawaiyi, a small island in the Pacific. They live in small huts constructed of wood, and utilise the hit springs for various purposes, one of which as the picture depicts, is for cooking."
