| X.8800 To Wd.{Mr Wood/Mr Whitehead} from EFC. RE LAMP BULBS FOR LUCAS HEAD LAMPS. We want to obtain some head lamp bulbs exactly similar to some which apparently were supplied in some Lucas head lamps. The marking on these lamps is as under :- B.A.S. 12-14 V 36 W (37) OSRAM GASFILLED. G.E.C.Patent. It appears that these may be a special type of bulb manufactured by G.E.C. Osram specially for Lucas. We would like you to obtain two dozen of these head lamp bulbs. These have axial filaments. EFC. | ||
