| Experimental Dept. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std.7/MH.{M. Huckerby} 7th. October 1938. AC.Sphinx Sparking Plug Co., Dunstable, BEDS. 1158. For the attention of Mr. Faulconbridge. Dear Sirs, We thank you for your letter of 5th. inst. which has crossed in the post with ours of 6th. inst. to Mr.Bennion Brown, and have noted with interest the quotations enclosed therein. We shall shortly be ordering some rheostatic switches as quoted, but would draw your attention to the fact that you specify 2 1/2 amps in your letter whereas what we require is 2 1/2 ohms resistance. - presume this is typographical error and would like you to confirm this. Yours faithfully, for ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
