| x2200 Exptl. Dept. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}17/KW. 13th February, 1935. The Borg & Beck Company Ltd., Tachbrook Road, Leamington Spa, Warwickshire. For the attention of Mr. Barker. Dear Sirs, We thank you for your letter of the 12th inst., and send you herewith the drawings you ask for. In case these are not the ones you want, perhaps you would quote the Piece Numbers of any more drawings you would like. What we meant with regard to the throw-out mechanism is that we do not want to have to make any new pieces. If, however, you prefer to use a journal bearing instead of our thrust type, we shall be willing to do this. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
