Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}16/KW.8.1.35. For supplying and fitting a Currus Fog Lamp including the supply of the lamp, a bracket, a switch and wiring, we would charge £4.10.0. We hear this morning from Park Ward & Co. that they now urgently need upholstery instructions if delay in the completion of the car is to be avoided. The leather manufacturers now find it takes as long as three weeks to bring through a set of hides, so you will appreciate the advisability of ordering the hides well before the chassis reaches the Coachbuilder.
