Dear Bill,

Thank you for your letter of the 20th.

I have been able to arrange for you to have the further eight strips without the formalities of a licence, but I shall be glad if you will not advertise the fact that you have got them.

We are overcoming the difficulty by calling them a sample.

I hope that next time you are in the north it will be possible for us to make contact.

In the meantime all the best for 1941.

Yours,

[Signature]

W.A. Robotham Esq.,
