Philippine Postcard

A nice old postcard I picked up in a group purchase of Philippine items brought back in the 1920's or 30's. The card shows a group of Igorot warriors standing with drums, shields, and spears. The one gentleman brandishing what looks to be possibly a bolo is standing by and pointing at a severed head on the ground in front of him. The printing on the card reads "Igorot Dancing Mt. Prov. P.I." As this card is not dated, does anyone here know of any way to find out when this card might have been originally photographed and printed? My thanks to anyone who might be able to help.
