Parts ledger for "Victory" car manufacture

Log book for ordering the metal parts that made up the 'Victory' car. Many of these parts were supplied by the Arrol Johnston foundry. The log book is divided into sections according to type of metal e.g. die castings, mall iron, gun metal, cast and carbon steel. Unfortunately, the potential of the 'Victory' model was never realised because of the bad publicity generated when the Prince of Wales abandoned a tour of the West Country in it. Production was cancelled and many of the orders have a 'cancelled' stamp on them dated April 1920.
