1021 9th June, 1941. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/EAG.2/RH.{R. Hollingworth} The Empire Rubber Company, D U N S T A B L E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Beds. Dear Sirs, Enclosed is a blue-print RB.{R. Bowen}12140 of a door glass buffer. We shall be glad to know if you have a buffer similar in size to this. It should be in a soft, good quality rubber, as it is to be used between two sliding glasses. As they are to be used on an experimental body, we should only require six for the time being. We do not wish to have moulds made if we can get something near to what we require from stock. Yours faithfully, Encls. | ||
