Wor{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}/Mcr6/L22514. Re special chassis Plates for cars going abroad. Order Office. 22-5-14. We are frequently having to have the above plates made and engraved by Mr Ellis and they usually have to be rushed through in a hurry. We think it would be a good idea if you would kindly instruct six to be made at once so that when one was needed it would only be necessary to fill in a few figures. We attach herewith a rough sketch showing the wording of these plates. p. Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} +677 | ||
