S/W Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Lu240 C4/C20.12.24. Radiator Shutters. With reference to your Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}11/LG15.12.24., CJ. and BJ. have seen the 20 h.p. shutters which Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} has sent to us, and would like to see a further set of shutters which are not highly polished and buffed, to try and do away with the 'tinny' appearance. Meantime we will keep the set of shutters we already have so that we can compare the two. [Handwritten Note] The Shutters with Scratch Brush finish herewith. c. JWC [Stamp] 16 DEC MJB | ||
