Dear Sirs, LAMPS. With reference to your letter of the 6th. instant, we duly sent the sample for Mr. Spinney's inspection, and we have seen him, and are pleased to say that he approves of the wiring scheme, also the manufacture and finish, but he thinks the Lamp is on the large size. We understand that he is writing to you on this subject, and also that he suggests we ask you to be good enough to give us your idea of the size and shape, and whether you wish any new fitting, for instance, to bolt on to the Wings, instead of the single tubular bracket. If you can give us any Blue Prints, or send us an attachment such as we have described, we shall be only too pleased to go fully into the matter, and feel sure we can give you every satisfaction. Awaiting the favour of your reply - We are, dear Sirs, Yours faithfully, BLERIOT LIMITED. | ||
