From F.H. Royce requesting a comparison between a cotton fabric lined clutch and a leather lined clutch, focusing on performance issues like jaggering and shrieking.

C.J. from F.H.R.

Referring to the tests of the cotton fabric lined clutch, this seems excellent. At the same time I should be glad to know how the cotton fabric lined clutch compares with the leather lined clutch for smoothness of starting, assuming the untreated fabric to be used which should be rather more elastic than the treated fabric, and I should like a separate statement on the points of jaggering and shrieking.

F.H.Royce.
