Postcard with address partially constructed from old postmarks

Postcard sent by Bray to Ernest Arnold on 8th March 1899 with old postmarks representing "Brockley" and "London".

The Post Office deemed that this was contrary to regulations and imposed a 1d charge.

The message on the reverse side may appear to be goobledygook but makes sense if the odd numbered lines are read in sequence followed by the even numbered.
