| 1331 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}3/MH.{M. Huckerby} 3rd. May, 1939. The Avon India Rubber Co. Ltd., Melksham, WILTS. For the attention of Dr. Mackay. Dear Sirs, We have in our Experimental Stores quite a large number of early types 6.50 x 16 tyres, many of which have never been used. As we only want to run our cars on the latest variety we have no use for these early tyres. We think it is just possible that you might like them back at the Works, but if not we will scrap them. Yours faithfully, for ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
