| X 4552 To Roy.{Sir Henry Royce} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/FD.{Frank Dodd - Bodies}19/KW.26.2.35. We have tested the sample tyre Pressure Gauge, Model "A.P." as supplied by you. Mechanically we are quite satisfied with the gauge, but we cannot fully appreciate the pocket clip arrangement and the fountain pen shape of the gauge. We prefer the present Kismet type at present supplied in the tool kits. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/F.Dodd. | ||
