| T.C.Worth,Esq., Aircraft House, MARKET HARBOROUGH. 1.11.40. Dear Tom, I wonder whether you would do me a small favour to help our Bentley publicity. There has been a strong move recently by some people who are not exactly friends of Rolls Royce's, to put out propaganda which insinuates that the old 3-litre Bentleys were real motor cars while the modern version is a "sissy" product. I want to start a correspondence in the Autocar, to get some true facts circulating. Would you be good enough to send this letter in under your own name? Yours sincerely, | ||
