We have sent on today two sample pieces of 5 m.m and 10 m.m. Brown Vola-Felt, and sincerely trust you will find these satisfactory. We are afraid it will be impossible to get down to the very light weight mentioned in our material, but we have sent these pieces on to you as being the lightest we can do, and trust you will find them suitable. We shall be very pleased to have your remarks after you have tested these under practical conditions, and shall be pleased to supply any other samples you may desire. Yours faithfully, FOR AND ON BEHALF OF VOL-CREPE LIMITED, [Signature] Sales Manager. ALL COMMUNICATIONS TO BE ADDRESSED TO THE REGISTERED OFFICE. | ||
