Mrs. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} R.{Sir Henry Royce} Hall, Hartley Cottage, Kirkburton, YORKSHIRE. Dear Mrs. Hall, We have your letter of April 1st together with Dunlop Blueprint No. C.D.S.746. The rim shown on this drawing is exactly what we want but as this construction will throw the rim and the tyre about a ½ inch closer to the body, we think you ought to send it on to Mr. Robotham and get his approval. We are returning the Blueprint and Mr. Sharp's letter herewith. Yours sincerely, John Young Assistant Works Manager. | ||
