11th July, 1939.

Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd.,
Derby.

For the attention of Mr. Rowbotham.

Dear Sirs,

With reference to our Mr. Hope's call upon you last week and his conversations with Mr. Grylls, we have now had an opportunity of going carefully into the manufacture of the wheel discs discussed.

We have pleasure in submitting herewith our quotation, which we trust will meet with your approval. If there is any further information you require we shall be pleased to hear from you.

Yours faithfully,
For CORNERCROFT LIMITED.

J. {Mr Johnson W.M.} Alan Corner
Joint Managing Director.

P.S.
In regard to the stainless steel caps, we are still awaiting material so that we can experiment in the manufacture of these. As soon as we have completed such experiments, we will write you as to the results.
