| To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from R.{Sir Henry Royce} X5970 R1/M26.6.25. X.4425 X.8970 X.5970 Would you please send to WW. 2 doz. of the latest porcelain cleanable plugs - for New PhantomCodename for PHANTOM I and Goshawk. The doz. we have here are the old-fashioned Lodge mica plugs. If you find the cleanable ones unsuitable for the New PhantomCodename for PHANTOM I or Goshawk, send those with porcelain insulation as at present on the New PhantomCodename for PHANTOM I. This type of plug is just possibly cleanable without detaching it. R.{Sir Henry Royce} SEE ORIGINAL FOR SKETCH. | ||
