S/W Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}..from C. X1588 C5/C19.9.33 I have been in negotiation with Mr.Gordon England, who now represents the Vacuum Oil Co., and he says that their representative, Mr.Russel Sharpe, interviewed Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} in July and obtained a definite promise that we would include the Vacuum Oil Co. in the Bentley instruction book. He states that Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} wrote to you on July 21st to this effect. I cannot trace this, and I should be glad if you would please see if you have anything round about that date, and if so, let me have a copy. If we do use the Vacuum Oil for the Bentley would you also suggest recommending Prices and Castrol? C. | ||
