This is to confirm that you will produce six further castings EW.1000 in Phosphor Chrome (B.106) These we are machining into short inserts. It will help us out of a difficulty if you can supply these quickly, as the previous B.106 castings have been lost by the experimental receiving stores. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/CTS.{C.
