S/W. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Cx{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager}3/KW1.9.36. I thought you might be interested in seeing the attached copy of a letter received by us from Vandervell Products Ltd on the subject of bearings. The statement that their new Babbitt bearing is universally adopted by practically every manufacturer in the world is either an exaggeration or possibly something worth looking into if you are not already familiar with it. Enc. Copy of Letter from Vandervell Products dated 31.8.36. Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} Keul | ||
