Sidgreaves - MD} Copy to Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}E.BY. Mr. Rn.{Mr Robinson} Floorboard & Dashboard Insulation. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}4/E22.2.35 Thanks for Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}9/KW.21.2.35. The information given therein is extremely interesting. I was wondering whether you could let us have the car, on which the alterations have been made, in London for a few days so that we could both see and try it without waiting for similar alterations to be made to 2-B-IV. Perhaps you will let me know. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
