DUNLOP WHEEL.
Hsl/LG12.3.23.

This wheel was sent to us by Messrs. Dunlop for test. It is fitted to one of our Experimental Cars but it has not run sufficient mileage for us to be able to report any advantage.

We do not wish to purchase this wheel but [handwritten: wish] [strikethrough] to send it back when our tests are completed.

Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}
