Re Slatted Bentley Radiator.
Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}2/E3.1.36

Referring to E.3/HB.{C. E. Harcombe}21.12.35, this arrived the other day and C, Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} and I have examined it.

I am sorry to say that we are not at all favourably impressed.

As I shall be at Derby next week, I think the best way will be to explain then why we are not keen on it.

Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}
