C9/G/14.9.33

I have been able to arrange with
Messrs.Shaw & Kilburn (Mr.T.L.Kein) to have a Terraplane
round here at 2.30 p.m. on Monday next.
He says you can drive it, and keep it until the next
morning if you like.

I have asked that it should be the
Open Sporting type. Is this right, because there is a Saloon?
