Vintage to the Last

Sir,
I have acquired a +(2)pc. Ultra Lucia. It is powered by a No. 9 cobolt bomb void induction, supra-gravity condenser.

Though not up to the latest +(3)pc. for light-year speed, it will even, after 29 years Mondial, take me to Station IX Mars in — 3hrs. Mondial.

I would not part with this vintage transporter for any Carbon Bomb Mk. I or Cobolt-Sodium Mk. II models, even with re-directed pre-thought controls as a standard fitting to the above. Fellow space-travellers think me mad because I still love the effort and thrill of thinking. [So do we. — Ed.]

I am, Yours, etc.,
R. Bartle (Lea-Francis 12(40).
