| Oy or fircide? Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}4/R.{Sir Henry Royce} 4th March, 1938. M.{Mr Moon / Mr Moore} Olley, Esq., Vauxhall Motors Ltd., LUTON, Beds. Dear Olley, I believe you are reading your paper at Coventry on March 8th. In view of your proximity to Derby, we are wondering whether we cannot lure you over here and induce you to gambol with us on the Skid Pan. At the same time, we should be delighted to see the family if they could make the grade. We are beginning to feel that we saw a good deal more of you when you were in America than we have done since you came to England. Kind regards to Norma and Diane. Yours sincerely, | ||
