Customers Cars Stored and Driven only at the Owners Risk Your Reference 9th... March, 1938... W.A. Rowbotham, Esq., Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd., D E R B Y .................. Dear Mr. Rowbotham, With reference to my conversation on the telephone with you yesterday, I confirm that we now have a 25/30 ROLLS-ROYCE Limousine completed for our Managing Director, Mr. Antweiler, with the cut-away door, a drawing of which we showed you during your recent visit to our Works, and I should very much like to have the opportunity of showing this body to you and to anyone else interested either from Derby or from London. There is also a proposition which I should like to discuss with you which I think may be of considerable interest to the Rolls-Royce Company in view of the somewhat altered conditions, and severe competition in the high priced car market. This Limousine will be available any day next week, and I am quite willing to come to Derby or go to London to show it to you. Incidentally, we also have a Saloon much on the same lines but that car will not be available during that week, but it could be seen some other time in the near future. I understand that you are making contact with certain individuals in London with a view to making an appointment at Derby when they are present, and I look forward to hearing from you on | ||
