Bailey - Chief Engineer}) (At Le CanadelHenry Royce's French residence.) C. to SG.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} WOR.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} P. 2. DASHBOARD. Naturally I think one pattern of dash excellent if a satisfactory design can be made. I do not know all the conditions, but approve of DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}'s drawing if it is agreed between DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} and E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} that it is really good, and the best that can be suggested. R.{Sir Henry Royce} ORIGINAL RECEIVED JAN 12 1931 Y7500. | ||
