I'm surprised the letter didn't arrive Postage Due; 5c covers only the Transatlantic postage, there's nothing for the registration fee. On first glance, it appears a stamp might have been removed along the southeast edge of the printed 2c indicia.

The use of censor tape in 1921 doesn't make sense to me. I can't make out the words on the German violet hand stamp.
