YOUR REFERENCE _____________ OUR REFERENCE WHL/GD. 5th January, 1938. Messrs. Rolls-Royce Limited, DERBY. For the attention of R.M. Child Esq. Experimental Department. Dear Sirs, We confirm the appointment made by our Mr. Honnoraty of Nottingham with Mr. Child for to-morrow, Friday, afternoon at 3.30 p.m. The writer will be coming through from London specially and we shall look forward to inspecting the headlamps fitted to one of your cars with the Mazda "Regulation" Twin Filament bulbs installed. We understand there has been a heavy snow fall in the Derby district, but even if it is not possible to take the car out for a test on the roads, we imagine that something can be done in the vicinity of the Works, and we are very anxious to see how the results work out when these bulbs are fitted in the large headlamps which you use on Rolls-Royce Cars. Yours faithfully, H.A. LINGARD. GENERAL MANAGER: LAMP DEPT., per [Signature] HEAD OFFICE: Crown House, Aldwych, W.C.2. Telephone: Temple Bar 8040.
