PLEASE ADDRESS YOUR REPLY TO: RESEARCH DEPARTMENT, HAYES, Middlesex. Phone: HAYES 246/8 EAE/AF 25th November, 1938. G.A. Grylls, Esq., Messrs. Rolls-Royce, Ltd., DERBY. Dear Mr. Grylls, I thank you for your letter of the 23rd November, and also for the samples which you have sent to us. Unfortunately the samples are exceedingly small, so we should be glad if you could possibly let us have larger quantities. Such very small samples rather cramp our ability to do very much with them. Yours sincerely, E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} A.{Mr Adams} Evans | ||
