Scope and content
Pritchard is delighted that Breuer has found someone to sell Isokon furniture. He reports that a steady eight or nine chairs a week are being produced, although one version of a stacking chair is proving troublesome. Pritchard refers to a possible patent application for a new element in the long chair and mentions Every-Clayton. He refers to a dinner with Serts, Charlotte Perriand, and Bobby Carter and asks Breuer to tell [Gropius] that Henry Morris and Max [Fry] are meeting Pritchard soon to discuss the village college. Mentions Harry Mansell and Jonathan Pritchard's cycling holiday in Europe.
