When Dennis Adler wrote the article about the Derham and H & E Mark II convertibles back in 1978 he wrote that an article was published in an unnamed magazine from late '55 or early '56 showing a picture of a Mark II convertible. Since the Derham car wasn't introduced until October 17, 1956 it's doubtful that the article had a picture of that car, because it didn't exist at that time.
I've reviewed every car magazine from '55 and '56 that I could get my hands on and have found nothing. Yes, Dennis Adler has checked his files. Any leads?

Since the Derham convertible that came down the assembly line as a coupe didn't ship until 6-1-56, long after the March '56 date stated.

Little help?
