| Copy. Secret. S/W. {Sales / Derby Works} By. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} Hn. {F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} 2/IH.3.9.38. Body for 3.B.5. If you have not already done so, we suggest that you issue finishing instructions to Park Ward & Co. for this body as early as possible. Leathers quite frequently take some time to obtain from the curriers, particularly at a time like the present, when there is a demand for special hides for Show Cars. If you care to tell us what you have in mind, we shall be glad to obtain patterns from which you may make a selection. Hn. {F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} | ||
