J.S. Inskip, Esq. -3- 25th. November, 1939. One thing which I think will appeal very strongly to the American public is the fact that our Phantom III replacement handles more easily than the Wraith. I was very glad to hear from Sidgreaves today that you had sold several cars since the War. It seems to me that you have a wonderful opportunity of getting sympathy from Conduit Street at the present time because Europe will inevitably be impoverished after the War, and American sales will be very valuable. Yours sincerely, | ||
