FORT DUNLOP ERDINGTON BIRMINGHAM 24 Messrs. Rolls-Royce Limited, DERBY. For the attention of S.H.Grylls, Esq. 9th June, 1938. Dear Sirs, Referring to your discussion with the writer at Derby on the 27th May in connection with the 4.50x16 Pressed Steel wheels supplied against your order 60480, it was suggested that you were considering a modification to the design of the wheel, and that we were to expect a drawing indicating your requirements. So far we cannot trace that this has come to hand, and in case it has gone astray we should very much appreciate a duplicate copy. Yours faithfully, FOR THE DUNLOP RUBBER CO.LTD.
