KENT, CLARKE & CO. LTD   SOUTH BANK HOUSE · BOROUGH ROAD · LONDON SE1 0AA TELEPHONE: +44(0)8753 7736 · FACSIMILE: +44(0)20 7982 7111 Email: simpsonj@kencla.com Mr J. Browns International Paint Ltd City House City Road London EC2 1PC 7 7 August 20­____ Dear Mr Browns Our Order No. Q157M We refer to our order for 400 large tins of paint. Our order form was sent to you last week, and we trust you have received it. As we have longer experience in the shipment of paint than you, it would be best if we gave you packing instructions. Paint, as you know, is a highly inflammable commodity, and extra precautions are always necessary. We would like you to pack the tins in 10 large cartons, 40 tins to each carton. Packing in strong metal cartons is essential, and each carton should measure not more than 110cm. x 55cm. x 55cm., as there is an additional charge for extra space, as well as weight.
