Outside Patterns.

Whilst in Coventry, we had a look over the Pattern & Model Co, Ltd., and find that these people make good patterns, and are, at the moment, anxious to receive work.

They have for a long time, supplied Humber's with all their patterns, but this business is ceasing, due to the fact that their future patterns will be produced by a firm, which is going to produce a quantity of castings for them.

We attach the various correspondence which we have received from the Pattern Model Co, Ltd., and a letter of recommendation from Humber's.

It is suggested that we should try these people, who appear to make first-class patterns.
