C O P Y. W.H. 386a (100 T) (S.H. 793. 10-12-20) G.{Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} 1947 Letter from:- JOSEPH STEER, 43-44, Weaman Street, Birmingham. 16th November, 1921. Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd., Derby. Dear Sirs, We have pleasure in sending you herewith particulars of The Bradwell Tester which we are just putting on the market. During the Motor Show we have been demonstrating this Tester in London and it has met with a most favourable reception. We were surprised however at the great interest shown in this by drivers of "Rolls" and other six cylinder cars, practically all expressing their intention to have one fitted as soon as the six cylinder model was available. This we hope to have ready in about 5/6 weeks time and we will send you particulars in due course, meanwhile we shall be pleased to let you have any other information required or to give a demonstration at your convenience. Assuring you of our best attention at all times. Yours faithfully, JOSEPH STEER. (Sgd) F.W.Hitchman. | ||
