Bugattis

Sir,

How very obvious is the result of the match between CWP Hampton’s Bugattis, Types 57SC and 37A, against PF Whalley’s Talbot and Alta.

I have always admired Hampton’s delightful enthusiasm and faith in Bugattis, and I second his views, particularly ”as to where bells should be hung and chromium laid on.”

I feel so confident as to the outcome of his accepted challenge that I will wager 5 to 1 on that the Bugattis secure the verdict. This I arrive at on the basis that it is “thoroughbreds” versus “mongrels.”

In closing, if CWP Hampton has any difficulty in acquiring a Type 37A, I would be pleased to loan him my Bugatti 37A for the occasion, that is, when opposed to the Alta.

I am, Yours, etc,

Jack Lawrence,  London, W11.
