Must try and make my way there sometime. Do tell me all about it at our next meeting...”, 1 side A4 Tarrant Rushton Airfield, nr Blandford, Dorset headed paper, 21st January 1964, together with a carbon copy of the reply with autograph address and signature, saying that he is pleased that he wants “to hear more about the new venture at Swyre. Things have developed very considerably since I sent you that brochure. Swyre has proved to be the pioneer of something very much bigger, and I hope to be able to tell you the result after an important meeting in London this Saturday. Having been a pioneer all your life, you will appreciate more than most people what it means to be first in the field with an important project. What I am doing will, I know, appeal to you very much. It will, however, be something more than can be told at the end of a Committee meeting while we are putting on our hats and coats. Perhaps you’ll have lunch with me the next time I’m in Bournemouth...”, 1 sid A4, no place, 23rd January

COBHAM (Sir Alan J., 1894-1973, Aviator)

Fine Typed Letter with autograph salutation and subscription, Signed “Alan Cobham” to Cyril Wood OBE thanking him for his “delightful letter, I am so sorry that I could not get in touch with you before... I had not a moment to spare before departing for my holiday in the South of France. I went to Monte Carlo and did nothing but lay on the beach, sunbathe, swim, eat and sleep - quite a relaxing time. Unfortunately I developed arthritis on the last two days of my holiday - luckily it has more of less departed. Regarding the Exhibition on the 1st September - I am afraid this is not going to be possible because tomorrow I fly north to Edinburgh to support the Orchestra on Saturday night and for two or three days next week. Afterwards I shall be motoring south, calling on old friends in Northumberland and Yorkshire, and will not be back in the office... so sorry that I shall miss the Exhibition...”, together with a carbon copy of Wood’s letter to Cobham, 1 side A4, Tarrant Rushton Airfield, nr Blandord, Dorset, 30th August
