HEADLAMPS FOR BENTLEY CHASSIS.

Whilst at Messrs.Lucas works yesterday I was asked if any decision had been arrived at in connection with the new streamline(Experimental Streamline Bentley B.23.A.E)d Lucas Lamps. They are anxious to have our opinion as soon as possible in order that tools may be put in hand etc.

As this lamp received our universal approval, we should be glad if you will deal with this matter with Messrs.Lucas accordingly.
