Reference Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Wst20/JH31.10.36, we were shown these new headlights by Lucas' representative last week, and Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} C and I had an opportunity of examining them and made certain suggestions to Lucas' regarding details, otherwise we agreed that the lamps were attractive and more acceptable than those we are getting at present. You will therefore no doubt keep in touch with Lucas' now in order to secure one or more sets for test. Cx. {Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} hul | ||
