    I think the stamp, possibly from the envelope in which the card was sent or unused from another envelope must have been cancelled by favour. Postcard collectors on the continent often liked the stamp on the picture side of a card I've seen stamps removed from the address side and stuck on the picture side but its obvious, there is a cancel on the stamp but none on the picture. Yours of course shows a cancel on the stamp AND the picture, which is why I say it was cancelled by favour, does it tie up with where the sender was? In WWI a postcard was often written standing up in the trench, a letter needed something to write upon, which is why so many cards are like this.

    Maybe this postcard was sent in an "openwork" envelope.

    The envelopes were usually thrown away which is why they do not appear on sale with the postcards. It is simply an envelope with a hole to show the stamp and the address the postcard is going to to. When it arrived most recipients simply ditched the envelope.
