A.{Mr Adams} Healey, Esq., The Dunlop Rubber Co.Ltd., Fort Dunlop, Erdington, BIRMINGHAM. Dear Healey, Now that we all seem to be lined up on the Phantom III tyre, our Sales Dept. are asking for a similar article for the 20/25 HP. I shall be abroad for the next 10 days, but in the interval I shall be glad if you would put such a tyre in hand, and communicate with Major Cox of our Conduit Street office, and let him know how soon he can expect a set for trial. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
