Cox - Advertising Manager}1/KW28.6.32. re- Japan III - Luggage Grid. In answer to your Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Lid{A. J. Lidsey}1/MA23.6.32, we do not think it would be worth while bringing the car all the way to Bignall's corner for us to look at the luggage grid. Therefore, the various officials concerned will take the opportunity when in Derby of inspecting it. If for any reason this car comes South no doubt you would let us know in case it was convenient to see it then. Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} | ||
