Hmm... so someone was lying to her (pulling her leg) ?

I get the impression there's a little something more to the gag, something topical? but the nuance is lost to time.

Yes, did a search and answers is little bit of guessing, some say it came from mid-evil time with people & bystanders pulling the legs making the victim suffer less during hanging...
Others is the lying, joking part with someone..

Yes I am familiar with the origin & etymology of the phrase, having briefly lived just up the road from the site of London's Tyburn "Tree" *eeek!*
but I also have a hunch that this might be somehow Leap Year, or political, or maybe Suffragette Movement related.
The inscription is printed on by publisher and not by sender.
This card is unused.
