1280 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std.4/MH.{M. Huckerby} Messrs. Ormerods Ltd., Little Park Street, Coventry. 11th. November 1937. Dear Sirs, We are not at the moment utilising any radiator grilles which would be adaptable for die-casting, but there is the possibility that we might do so in the future. We would be interested to receive some specimen prices of grilles made in this manner, for comparison with our present shutters and any projected sheet metal grilles. Yours faithfully, for ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
