NAME PLAQUE

I would be most grateful if you could help me bring this extremely complicated design project to a conclusion, by having redrawn your drawing No. UE.9063 to meet Fnk's criticisms, and the apparently essential requirement of Shrewsbury that the plaque should have fixing holes for Parker/Kalon screws in the corners.

This will cheapen it, I know, and in my own opinion it will no longer be a real Rolls-Royce job; however as we expect them to use more than us, at any rate for some little time to come, I suppose we must humour them.

Sdt.
