Lane & Girvan Ltd., Caledonian Stove & Electrical Works, Bonnybridge, Near Glasgow, Scotland. Dear Sirs, Thank you for your letter dated 25th November, ref. No. JS{Mr Johnson's Secretary}/SB.{Mr Bull/Mr Bannister} We are still very interested in your enamelling process and we have decided to send you 2 exhaust manifolds taken from our Bentley cars, for re-enamelling. These manifolds will have been sand-blasted so as to give you as rough a surface as possible to work on, and upon their return to us will be fitted to Bentley cars for road tests. When returning these manifolds, will you please mark them for the attention of the undersigned. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
