| S/W. {Sales / Derby Works} Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Tyres on 20/25 h.p. Rolls-Royce. Cx {Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} 2/KW10.12.35. We have now tried the different pattern tyres you sent us, and find a considerable improvement on one of the cars, which was a very bad one before, and it would seem to us, therefore, to be desirable to have this improved tyre fitted to our other two Demonstration Cars. Our Enclosed Limousine is one that specially wants treatment in this way, and as we only have one spare wheel on each of these cars we only require 9 more tyres to complete them. If you wish us to order these ourselves will you please tell us what is the description which will ensure that we get the correct pattern of tread ? Cx. {Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} Rwb | ||
