Dear Sirs, We understand that, before the war, you were supplying blanks for the brake shoes supplied to us by New Hudsons Ltd., for the Bentley V, which was just going into production. We now require some shoes of roughly the same size, and we enclose a sketch of the finished shoe, as far as we can see it at pre-sent. We should like you to supply us with 3 dozen blanks from which to make these shoes. An official order will follow as soon as you write confir-ming that you can supply these parts. Yours faithfully, | ||
