The sample submitted is put forward with a view to our testing the internal construction of the Gauge, and the makers state that, should bulk business result, the black finish would be considerably improved; in addition to which they would of course engrave the dial in line with our present standard practice, i.e. black background with white figures. The Gauge is submitted by a firm who did considerable useful work for the Company during the War, so we should be glad of your early report. ROY. {Mr H. Royce - Buyer} [Signature] SAMPLE GAUGE to accompany this Memo. | ||
