Dear John R.,
I've been looking for some containers for my product
catalogues and I noticed your library had some very nice
plastic ones. When I was there in September, I stopped in
to ask where they bought them as I had been unable to find
any on the market.
said they were made special
for 43C each. Reed has since gone out ot business
and he has been trying to find a way to get another quantity.
I told him I would inquire around Los Angeles about it and
let him know.
The enclosed letter contains the information I have
collected to date.
Regards, ,

No change is proposed for other direct costs such
as travel, shipping costs and computer rental which are
billed at net cost to this contractor.
It is anticipated that the specific emphasis and
phasing of the proposed work would be directed by a
Technical Representative of the Contracting Officer. A
