Dear Sirs, For the Attention of Mr.Whitehead. With reference to the writers call on you recently, it would be esteemed a favour if we could receive at your convenience report on the "GRAHAM" ELECTRICAL AUTOHORNS we sent you for test some six months ago. It occurs to us that you might possibly be willing to consider the question of fitting an alternative Horn for town work in addition to the motor driven type for the country, when the Car is travelling fast. If this suggestion meets with your approval and the Horns submitted are satisfactory, we should be very glad to have an opportunity of quoting for the instruments in question. With compliments and assuring you of our best services at all times. Yours faithfully, For ALFRED GRAHAM & Co. WSheppard SALES MANAGER | ||
