SpectreCodename for Phantom III Catalogue.

You will see from the enclosed copy of the 40/50 H.P. Catalogue the kind of illustrations we are now showing, and I should like you to look through them to see whether any of them could be used in the new catalogue. In the case of the latter we shall be showing a plan drawing of the chassis, as well as the side or elevation.

Amongst other chassis parts we will be illustrating both the nearside and offside of the engine as well as the front view.

Mr. Clark will be able to get on with his drawings on Saturday and Sunday next, and I understand you will be good enough to have an engine in the shed where we worked yesterday, for his use. Also, that you will leave the key of this shed at the entrance to the Works so that he can gain admittance. He can thus work over the week-end without disturbing your men more than is absolutely necessary.

With regard to the question of photographing the SpectreCodename for Phantom III now at W. will you be good enough to give instructions for me to be be informed when these cars will be ready. The one that is going to France I can photograph almost anywhere between Derby and the Coast if I am given due notice.

Bkl.
