OUR REF. WOK/PP. 11th July 1934. SUBJECT Dear Mr. West, I was talking to a friend of mine yesterday, namely, Mr. Broom of Broom & Wade Ltd., the Pump Manufacturers and he told me he was interested in a Graham-Paige Motorcar on account of the super charger with which it is fitted. It occured to me that, possibly, your Company might be willing to dispose of the car you took me out in, at some time or other in the near future and, if such a chance does exist, possibly you will drop me a line. I should also like to hear from you as to whether you have any fresh information to give me on the subject of Aircraft or Motorcar Ignition Equipment. I will most willingly come and see you to discuss this subject further at any time that may suit your convenience. Yours sincerely, W.O. Kennington Managing Director. C/c to Sales Dept. | ||
