I confirm mine Wd{Mr Wood/Mr Whitehead}5/NJS/8.4.21.

We are in receipt of a letter from the Lucas Elect. Co. from which we note that they are producing certain Bakelite mouldings. They have sent us a Bakelite terminal insulating plate which they have moulded themselves and I am sending this to you.

The Lucas Electrical Co. state that all the dynamos they are now supplying to us are fitted with this Bakelite terminal insulating plate.

I have written the Lucas Electrical Co. asking them to favour us with information regarding their experience of the production of Bakelite mouldings and upon receipt of their reply, I will send you a copy.
