X 4005 Extract from letter fro Mr. Minchin. M/5. 28th April, 1927. X.8730. As regards Mr. Royce, I think your scheme is much the better and I hope, as you say, that he will come to it. With regard to the tail lamp indicator, I see what you mean but I was driving Mr. Royce's car in the bright sunshine when in the South of France, and sometimes when we were not expecting it the red light lit up, but one was able to spot this at once in spite of the sunshine. | ||
