Letter from the Vacuum Oil Company confirming the suitability of Mobilgrease No.5 for motor car dynamos.

Date  11th October 1938 guessed

No. .2. V.O.Co., Ltd., to Messrs Rolls Royce Limited

We also wish to confirm that MOBILGREASE NO.5. is suitable for the bearings of Motor car dynamos, etc., where a soda-base grease of this kind is required, because of its higher melting point, in comparison with the normal lime base grease as used for water pump and general chassis lubrication.

Yours faithfully,

VACUUM OIL COMPANY, LIMITED.

O.{Mr Oldham} Javes
Chief Engineer.
