Joseph Lucas Ltd are developing a range of Lamps particularly for the Sports type car, and have submitted a sample, No. L.165.S, which may interest us for the Bentley car. They will gladly send another to make a pair if we are interested. At the same time they would welcome any suggestions we may care to put forward. Personally it seems to me heavy.
