S/W. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} WST 86081 re- Bentley Speedometers. Cx{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager}4/KW24.5.34. Dict.23.5.34. I understand that Mr.Buckland of Smith's will be able shortly to let you have a speedometer for the Bentley with larger trip figures. Mr.Buckland mentioned to us that he had been in touch with you about this, and that he had more or less finished his tests. Whilst there is no urgent hurry for this, I am anxious to keep in touch with this matter in order to know when we can expect instruments to come through on standard production chassis with this modification.
