This estimate, dated 17th July, 1907, is to Messrs. A. E. Hughes & Son,
address 28, Mortimer St., W. The estimaste was for New Burlington Street
and was apparently performed by Mr Butt:
| FOR THE SUPPLY OF |
16 squares of Luxfer Fire Resisting Glass,
Electro Copper Glazed, shaped at top, glazed ¼" clear plate
for sides and ends of lantern light over Ground Floor, 10 each 2'
4¼" x 1' 11", six each 2' 6¾" x 1' 11", for the sum of
fifteen pounds four shillings and ninepence . . . . . . |
£15. 4. 9. |
| FOR THE SUPPLY AND FIXING OF |
Two Luxfer Electro Copper Glazed Canopies
glazed with Prisms to the correct angle, each 3' 4" x 4' 0", for the
sum of thirteen pounds six shillings and eightpence . . . . . . |
£13. 6. 8. |

We find it impossible to glaze these windows
vertically, we therefore quote for canopies, and are perfectly certain
of good result.

The paper is thin, almost an onion skin, and translucent, so ink on the
front is visible from the back, vice versa, making it a bit hard to read.
The back side lists these GENERAL CONDITIONS:
- Deliveries may be suspended pending any contingencies beyond
the control of the Vendors (such as Strikes, Lock-out, Fire,
Accident, War, or the like), causing a short supply of power

the Article.
- Any deliveries so suspended may be claimed by the buyer at the
same rate of delivery commencing after the period assigned to
this Contract, if such claim be made within a month after such
