[Handwritten note on left: Puy/gal]
Dear Mr.Robotham,
Thank you very much indeed for your kindness and hospitality when I visited you recently with Maurice Wilks.
I really did have a most entertaining and interesting day, and I hope you will make a point of thanking Mr.Bailey and all the other people who contributed to my entertainment and instruction.
I told Mr.Shaw, our Managing Director, that we might be able to help you on some production figures, and he asks me to tell you that we shall be delighted to give you any information you require.
If you will drop me a line after your return from Switzerland, we will arrange for you to visit Coventry.
Yours sincerely,
[Signature]
