| To Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Copy to Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} WYMAN [Signature] When Hn.{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} was here on Friday he told us that a Mr.Sprott, a Director of the British Oxygen Co., has had the exhaust tail pipe of his new 20/25, G.S.F.34 treated by metal spraying, and we understand that it has been so far satisfactory in maintaining a good appearance. If you are interested we suggest that you might like to get into touch with Mr.Sprott, and we ourselves would like to see the exhaust pipe suitably treated, as should this system prove satisfactory and inexpensive we might like to adopt it as standard.
