Re. Second-hand Dunlop Tyres at Sales Department.

S. have 58 - 895 x 135 Dunlop Magnum Canvas Covers, and 4 - 895 x 150 ditto, and 11 tubes.

BJ. instructs that no further tyres are to be ordered for test purposes at the works until the stock of second-hand tyres in London is depleted. We shall be glad if you will arrange accordingly.
