No. V.O.Co.Ltd. to Our Oils for motor-cycles now number four, viz:- Thick - VACUUM MOBILOIL B Medium - VACUUM MOBILOIL R MEDIUM Thin - VACUUM MOBILOIL A For Racing - VACUUM MOBILOIL TT (formerly Mobiloil HH) and where a heavy oil at a low price is required as a substitute for B - VACUUM MOBILOIL R HEAVY. These oils are packed in quart cans specially designed with the idea of appealing to the motor cyclist. VACUUM MOBILOIL TT is listed at the same price as Mobiloils A and B, and carries the same trade discount. Thanking you in anticipation of your co-operation in aiding us to secure an additional share of the motor-cycle oil business for which we are now making a strong bid, and to which we are giving great attention, We remain, Yours faithfully, VACUUM OIL COMPANY, LIMITED.
