| 1029? EXPERIMENTAL DEPT. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/AFM.{Anthony F. Martindale}4/JH. 27th August, 1937. Messrs. Automotive Products Co.Ltd., Tachbrook Road, Leamington Spa. For the attention of the Patents Dept. Dear Sirs, Further to our letter of Yesterdays date, we have examined the specifications and we notice that as discribed by you the vehicle would have no servo braking in reverse. We think it is inadvisable to leave the draft in this form. We have two patents 235,381 and 230,603 dealing with this: patent 222,162 quoted by you, does not. Perhaps you would give this matter your consideration. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
