Re:- Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 6/KW.10.7.36.
With reference to the above, and confirming my conversation with you over the telephone, there is a 4¼-litre Bentley available for immediate delivery belonging to Jack Barclays, listed at £1,750 with a 2-door Sports Saloon four-seater body. On the other hand there is available at the end of the present month a standard 4¼-litre Saloon, the property of Messrs. Pass & Joyce, listed at £1,510. Perhaps you would kindly let me know if I can be of further assistance.
