"Phantom III" Switchbox.
[Handwritten note:] 5 returned Scrap.
Will you please order for us ½ doz. carbon contacts to D.76082, one blueprint attached herewith.
These are urgently required in connection with starter switch experiments in which we think a longer flexible pigtail will cure the breakages now occurring in customers' hands.
