| X4228 The 'TRIAT' Carburettor Company. (WILLIAM JAMES, PROPRIETOR) MANUFACTURERS OF THE "TRIAT" (TRIPLE ATOMISING) BIRKENHEAD PATENT AUTOMATIC CARBURETTOR. (PATENTED IN ALL PRINCIPAL COUNTRIES). October 4th 1922. Messrs Rolls-Royce Limited, X Rugby X Dear Sirs: We note that you are putting on the market, a new Model 20 H.P. car, & we trust you will not be offended at our putting the following proposition to you in reference to same. In the design of the new car it is possible that the Carburation system may have had consideration with a view of simplifying same & at the same time maintaining that high standard of excellence & efficiency without having to adopt or use any of the proprietary Carburettors at present on the market. If this position obtains we would respectfully suggest your allowing us to afford you the opportunity of testing our System of atomization or carburation by means of our Patent Convolving Atomizing device which we hold patents for in this country, United States, France Italy, Belgium & also two German Patents pending. This device is far ahead of the new Zenith Diffuser which is simply a modification of one of our older patents & knowing well the exclusive nature of your manufactures we are prepared to let you have the sole & exclusive rights to work the patents on a very reasonable basis if after investigation you decided to adopt the system. Awaiting the favour of your reply we remain, Yours respectfully. THE "TRIAT" CARBURETTOR CO., W James | ||
