| Alec. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}5/WH. 13th. December, 1939. C.W.Nichols, Esq., Messrs. S.Smith & Sons Ltd., Cricklewood Works, LONDON, N.W.2. Dear Nichols, Herewith a drawing of a rev counter drive. PL. 69. I believe that you make some right angle fitments which would just suit a drive like this to enable the cable to be taken back parallel to the C.L. of the crankshaft. If you make such drives I should be glad if you could let me have a sample together with the drawing. Yours sincerely, | ||
