Cover definitely has some color to it. Peter Singer was a big stamp dealer out of Portland. A relative now sells his stock out of Israel on Ebay.

I seem to recall a prohibition for stamps on the back of a registered letter, but obviously ignored here; that's a plus.

The addressee, Dr. Arthur Hines Groten, is a stamp collector and poster stamp collector, as shown in this link where he has authored an article on poster stamps and it is stated that he is a board member of the Ephemera Society of America:

Sweet! Thank you everyone! I ought to send his old mail back to him COD! lol nah, I don't really know what to do with it?

He probably bought a poster stamp for his collection and this was the envelope it came in. To have been registered it must have been a pretty special one eh?
