Thank you for your letter dated the 19th.inst., which we have carefully read, and in order to enable us to make an alteration in the pitch of the finger grips, this would require another half die, costing approximately £10., In view of this expense, possibly you would not care to go to this without first of all seeing a sample. It is possible that we might be able to work in the pitch from the solid ring. If you would like us to do this, we shall be very pleased to try, if you will let us know. Yours faithfully, p.p.BLUEMEL BROS.LTD | ||
