Re: Mr. Briggs S. Cunningham.

As mentioned to you over the telephone this morning, I have heard from the above and attach a copy of his letter. As arranged with you, I have suggested that we collect the car and bring it to London pending further discussions.

I have also told him that although the type of car mentioned by him is well-known to us, there is not one available in the used market, to our knowledge. I am attaching a photogravure for your guidance. However, in view of our conversation, no doubt you can persuade him to buy a new one a little later on.
