To E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} from ROY. {Mr H. Royce - Buyer}
c. to Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}

ROY {Mr H. Royce - Buyer} 7/MG8.9.33

The Rudge-Whitworth Company have suggested that the Spanner they are producing for Bentley Wheels to our design could be improved, and have submitted a sample, which I hand you herewith, for our consideration.

This is only a rough hand-made sample, and should we entertain its use, bulk supplies would be better finished.
