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.
