Rolls Royce Ltd.
DERBY.

22nd Sept. 1926.

Dear Mr. Hives:

Confirming telephone conversation - We are proposing to issue the 33 x 6.75 tyre to your Company with the traction tread - that is, the tread which you tested in France; until such time as the modified triple stud pattern can be approved by you.

On the question of date of delivery - I find that we cannot promise anything in less than six to eight weeks from now as new moulds will have to be made.

Yours faithfully,

For THE DUNLOP RUBBER CO. LTD.,
A Healey
