| DUNLOP RUBBER CO.,LTD. TELEGRAPHIC ADDRESS: "DUNLOPS, PHONE, BIRMINGHAM" TELEPHONE: ERDINGTON 2121 (P.B.X) EXTENSION NO. 395. YOUR REF: OUR REF: HEP/BMT.403. FORT DUNLOP ERDINGTON BIRMINGHAM Messrs. Rolls-Royce Limited, DERBY. For the attention of S.H.Grylls, Esq. 27th January, 1938. Dear Sirs, Further to our letter of the 19th instant, we enclose copy of our print CDO.2633 indicating the type of cap which it is proposed we should supply for the sample disc wheels. It is felt that our spinners should be able to produce these satisfactorily, but it is possible they may have to reduce the top diameter in order to ease the spinning operation. We hope you are in agreement with this design, and anticipate there will be no difficulty in having them available with the wheels. Yours faithfully, FOR THE DUNLOP RUBBER CO.LTD. [Signature] Manager, Car Manfrs. Division. [Footer Logo: 1888 1938 DUNLOP 50 YEARS OF GROWTH] | ||
