| Copy of letter received from:- PARTRIDGES LIMITED, NORTHWOOD STREET, BIRMINGHAM. Our Ref.-W.J.P. Your Ref.-Wd{Mr Wood/Mr Whitehead}/GEA21/FJ. February 13th,1923. Messrs.Rolls-Royce Ltd., Nightingale Road, Derby. Dear Sirs, Further to your memo of the 1st inst., we now have pleasure in handing you sample of our patent Spring Cover for Grease Spigots in use with our Grease Gun. The price of these will be 6d. each, subject to 57½%. As you will see they are held in position by being placed under the Spigot before it is screwed up tightly, and could be put in whatever is the most convenient position for opening. There is no chance of this being lost, and as they are operated very quickly and easily we believe you will find them advantageous. The Nut and Spigot in sample has merely been supplied so that you may see the way the article works. We shall be glad to hear further from you. Yours faithfully, Per pro PARTRIDGES LTD., (Sgd.) W.H.Partridge. ENCLOSURE Nº 705 JUSTSO | ||
