| To: Dor{Mr Dorey} From JPB c: FS{F. Steele}/BJW JPB.1.AH. 11.5.56 1610. Cellon Blue I have discussed with FS{F. Steele}/BJW the troubles relating to Cellon Blue and I am satisfied from what he tells me that it is not the colour that is at fault, but its manufacture. Early batches of this colour caused us no trouble and presumably, therefore, the secret can again be found. In view of the above I am not at this stage taking any further action about alternative colours. JPB | ||
