Hallam - Head Repairs} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} (3505 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}1/LG19.5.25. NEGRETTI & ZAMBRA THERMOMETER. Last year Messrs. Negretti & Zambra supplied us with a small dashboard Thermometer similar in appearance to the Cambridge Thermometers used on production. This thermometer was fitted to our cars running in France. It was last seen on either 9-PK or 35-PK before they went to the Repair Dept. We wondered whether you could find any trace of this instrument as we should like to examine it, if it could be found. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
