Identifier  ExFiles\Box 148\5\  scan0219
Date  13th November 1937
  
To G {Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} /Rb. {R. Bowen} from Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Std.

Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Std.2/MH. {M. Huckerby} 13.11.37.

1260

We send you herewith a scheme showing a modified filler on the Wraith radiator.

Will you please give us the cost of this compared with the existing Wraith arrangement.

The filler cap would be a bakelite (or similar material) moulding without any machining and the approximate cost of the spun thread inset would be 4d.
