Dear Sirs, With further reference to your letter of the 2nd instant, we have today dispatched an all chromium Walmsley Patent Jewel Lens Prijector Fog Lamp, complete with bulb, for the purpose of enabling you to conduct an Official Test. In addition to its Fog Penetrating properties, the lamp provides an extraordinary driving light under normal conditions and we suggest that it should be mounted in the centre of the car, on the same plane or a slightly lower level, than the head lamps. Yours faithfully, E Walmsley Managing Director. Handwritten notes: Top right: 6116 Left margin: RW/ RW/WELL Bottom left: JJ get this rigged up and phone me Wff | ||
