SS.{S. Smith} FRONT NUMBERPLATE.

With reference to HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/AJL1/MJ20929.,
would you please tell us what is the state of the number-plate at the present moment. We did not see the demonstration of the two positions which you spoke of in your note, and it would be interesting to us to know whether R.{Sir Henry Royce} agreed to the numberplate on the front cross member.
