| Order Office from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} X3035. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}6/ADL.1.32. I wish to purchase from the firm a Stephen Grebel spot light. We have no use for it experimentally because Sales have turned it down as obscuring the driving vision, and we are also now having to run spot lights with mirrors on the back owing to the new regulations. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} considers this spot light to be worth 50/- and I am prepared to pay this for it. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
