| Your ref. A/BGC/17. Ask R.C. what this is about DYNAMO Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/RC.{R. Childs}1/ST.{Capt. P. R. Strong} 8th October, 1940. Messrs. Lucas Ltd., Great King Street, BIRMINGHAM 19. For the attention of Mr. B.G. Crupper. Dear Sirs, We thank you for your letter of the 30th September and also for the catalogue. We have now received the three vacuum units and the Vauxhall type unit complete with vernier. We note your remarks concerning the dynamo and after studying Messrs. C.A.V.'s catalogue, have come to the conclusion that our dynamo, for its weight, gives a 25% larger output than any other stock machine on the British market. We will however, as suggested, get in touch with the Technical Sales Department of Messrs. C.A.V., since they may have a suitable machine which is not shown in their catalogue. Thanking you for your kind attention, Yours faithfully, | ||
