BIRMINGHAM.1.

Dear Breedon,

Thank you for your letter of the 11th. February, also for your nice remarks about the Bentley.

If your first impressions of the car are pleasing, I am relieved, because I think that the more you drive it, the better you will like it.

Referring to matters discussed during your last visit. I am arranging to send you within the next few days, final drawings of the steering wheel and radiator grill of the Myth; also probably a model of the radiator grill itself. I hope that you will be able to let me have pieces in due course to fit to the proto-type.

I enclose a copy of preliminary running and maintenance notes for the Bentley V.{VIENNA} car.

Yours sincerely,

Enclos.
