Portrait Picture Question

[andya]

I have this standard portrait picture but with a twist. It is printed on a postcard from Australia.
There is probably a simple answer but can anyone tell me how this could be
many thanks

An Australian obtained the negative and had the photo printed back home (is my guess).
