| 1021 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/EAG.2/ET. 10th November, 1941. C.W. WARD, Esq., Messrs. Park Ward Ltd., 473 High Road - Willesden, LONDON, N.W. 10. Dear Mr. Ward, I have succeeded in finding some more steel for the Myth bodies. You will see that there is a variaty of thicknesses and, although they are not quite to specification, it is the best I can do. If your people will use a thinner gauge than is specified rather than thicker, it will be all right. You will see that there is no .028, but I think you will find that there will be enough to do the job in the original consignment. Yours sincerely, | ||
