| 1021 8th January, 1941. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/EAG.7/ET. Messrs. Silent Channel Co., HUNTINGDON. Dear Sirs, We wish to order from you a sample 12 ft. length of each of two types of window channeling and sealing strip. Before sending in our official order, we wish to quote the correct numbers of the above. The sealing strip has a stainless steel edge. Your number for this, we think, is A.M.2.S.D. The channeling is of the American type, one having a stainless steel edge and the other without this edge. Your numbers for these, we think, are Y.550 and Y.600. We should be much obliged if you would let us know that these Nos. are correct and to which type the two latter Nos. refer. In your letter to us of 30th October, you mentioned channeling for 5/8" and 9/16" boxing. Is the above mentioned channeling obtainable in the two widths, or do you only supply it for 5/8" boxing? When this material is dispatched, will you please make a point of marking it for the attention of Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/EAG. Yours Faithfully, | ||
