Following our various conversations re a foot control Switch, originally made by the Bosch Company, Stuttgart, and since developed by Messrs. Joseph Lucas Ltd. Birmingham more closely to British requirements, (Vide ROYI/MG1.5.34) herewith sample made in their Tool Room, which doubtless will interest you.

As you are aware, we are at present drawing the German made Bosch Foot Switches from the C.A.V.Bosch Company.
