Dunwoody, 430 Gray Avenue, Webster Grove, Mo. Dear Mr. Robotham: When you were here recently you asked for certain specifications regarding the 12" single plate clutch which we supply to the Packard and Lincoln Motor Car Companies. We regret that we failed to get this information to you while you were still in Detroit, which was due to the writer being absent from the plant most of the time while you were here. We are, however, inclosing two copies of these specifications now and trust that this gives you all the information you require. If there is anything else you might need, do not hesitate to call on us. Very truly yours, LONG MANUFACTURING COMPANY [Signature] Asst. Chief Engineer RCZeidler/RK | ||
