Attached is a circular concerning a lamp, which, on reading it, appears to be the only lamp in the world worth using. I expect you have read similar claims before. We certainly have. At the same time I suppose one day some-body will invent a very good lamp, and we ought to keep an eye on these developments. I wonder what you think of this from its description and whether you would like to try a pair and give us your views. If you would, no doubt you will get in touch direct with the manufacturers and let us have a report in due course. Enc. Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} Kwb | ||
