Honeyman - Retail orders} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} EXPERIMENTAL SALOON - 18-EX. Y7830 With reference to Cx{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager}/Hn{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders}17/JL19.12.28. The cost of mounting this body was £186. 14. 0. As this car was for Mr. Royce it was necessary to work continuously night and day on it. It is therefore rather difficult to say exactly how much is due to Barkers' delinquincies. We will leave it to you however to deal with the matter. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} | ||
