| -2- E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Hives, Esq. 20th August, 1937. I think you should know that in the Exhibition the names of firms are being excluded as far as possible. It is purely an educational exhibition. Indeed, the S.M.M.T. has been pleased to smile upon it, and remove any embargo which they usually place upon exhibitions. An early reply would be appreciated, because time is getting short and the catalogue is in the course of preparation. We should like a word or two of description to include in the catalogue, but we should not want the exhibits until the first week in October. Yours sincerely, E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} A.{Mr Adams} Evans | ||
