Sidgreaves - MD}14/E2.4.31 I think you know Mr. Skinner by name as a very enthusiastic motorist and an old customer of ours and I believe you saw a recent report of his trial of a Continental model at Brooklands. I thought you would be interested to see the attached letter and in particular the last paragraph. One feels one would rather like R.{Sir Henry Royce} to see this! Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} Enc. Copy of letter from Mr. Skinner to Bt.{Capt. J. S. Burt - Engineer} dated 28.3.31 | ||
