I recall having Zeiss Lamps on the old Sports Phantom which I used for twelve months, and they gave excellent results. Am sending you herewith some literature concerning these lamps. The manner in which this is prepared and the illustrations of the driving light, fog light, etc., would indicate that they are worth a trial. The Zeiss Company are prepared to consider letting us have a pair of lamps for test, and I suggest you might like to try these out on the 'baby'. Lp.{Mr Lappin} Encl. Literature. | ||
