| Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst ~~E.H.V.~~ From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. Y61553. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.2/MA.8.11.35. We have received for test a Marconi car radio set which is certainly a really nice job with a finish up to our standard. Could you arrange for one of the new experimental Phantom III bodies to have this set properly installed in the rear compartment. I'm afraid not as we have been allocated the two complete Olympia Show Bodies + it will be difficult to fit now. Besides I believe both have wireless fitted. EW Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.
