HEADLAMP BRACKETS. B.50.

We send herewith PD.149 shewing the headlamp brackets for 1-B-50.

We shall try either R.100, P.100 or a modernised edition of the old Bentley lamp G.B.D.167 S.E.D.E.S., a model set of which have been on order some while.

We suggest that we try the lamp socket on the tube as a bras die casting to save expense.
