6" BALLOON TYRES FOR 20 HP.

With fx reference to C2/C26.4.27. The standardisation sheet for these tyres has been signed by all Officials except BJ. and PN.{Mr Northey}

As regards a set for the Sales to try, we recommend you purchase a set from Messrs. Dunlops. The only ones we have are fairly old.

As these tyres will shortly be standard and also be good stock, they could be used on the trials cars.
