Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}2/KW 22nd September 1936 Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ld. Nightingale Road, D E R B Y. Dear Sirs, We are obliged to you for your letter of 21st inst. and assume this replies to our letter of 15th inst. re Volute Drain Pipes D-5750. On this assumption, we should be greatly obliged if you would be good enough to place any orders as early as possible. Tools have to be made for the die stamping, and owing to the large amount of work in hand, deliveries of these are now being quoted at 8 weeks. This would mean that we should require approximately 10 weeks to commence delivery of the Volute Drain Pipes. Yours faithfully, SUPERFLEXIT LIMITED, Manager | ||
