| CWW/GC. 5th April,1940. C.L.Breedon Esq., Messrs. Willmot-Breeden Ltd., Eastern Works, Camden Street, Birmingham. Dear Mr. Breedon, I have very much pleasure in confirming my recent visit to your Works, and thank you very much indeed for the hospitality extended to me. I have made enquiries, and have ascertained a sample Visor of the size we require, was despatched on the 29th ult., under cover of our Advice Note No.1231, and I trust that this is safely in your possession. This, as you know, has been submitted in connection with the pair of new pattern Visors which I saw whilst at your Works, and which are required for a car at present in production. As arranged I have pleasure in sending herewith 4 Everall Locks, which are submitted as pattern for the new type of lock. Also, a See-Saw Switch, which at present we obtain from Messrs. S.Smith & Sons, at 3/6d each less 25% and 10%. I also, enclose herewith a set of Beaton's Hinges, and the price we pay for these is 8/4 per set nett. Yours sincerely, for PARK, WARD & CO LTD., Works Director. Encs. | ||
