| Pm/EAC.3/MT. 24th March, 1941. Messrs. Small & Parkes, Ltd., Hendham Vale Works, MANCHESTER, 9. 1026 Dear Sirs, We thank you for your letter of 22nd March ( ref. JPM/WMA), concerning bonnet tape. We note that you have not had to make such material in 1 inch width. As we do not wish you to weave a sample specially for us, we should be obliged if you would send us a sample of the nearest that you have to the size shown on our blue print. As the particular car for which this is required is in the design stage, we may be able to adapt one of your standard tapes for our purpose. Yours faithfully, | ||
