1245 Paris. 15/4/39. P.S. Mr. de la{L. A. Archer} Brosse (our french chap) has asked me whether you could possibly place him a few photos that you took of that famous trip of Germany with the streamline. He has an album & would much like to add your pictures to his collection. Dear Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}, Many thanks for your cheque just arrived: I hope your cases will reach you in good order. Re 14.B.I inspection, without certitude I think the date will be about the 27th or 28th inst - however I expect to be able to give you certain by Wednesday next. Many thanks for the despatch of the indicators. Noted re Longchamp. Will the rear brake drums be housed inside the driving wheels similar to those on the front wheels on 14.B.I ? I ask you this in connection with wheel arch clearance. Yours ever sincerely, A.W.P. | ||
