| Exptl. Dept. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Smth.S/JH. 4th January, 1936. Messrs Borg & Beck, Ltd., Tachbrook Road, Leamington Spa. For the attention of Mr Barker. Dear Sirs, We are instructing our despatch office to send you the Ph.III plate No.3 together with 2 hubbs and rivets. You will remember that No.3 plate is the one which was excellent to start with, but which deteriorated. You will cut horse shoe slots in this plate and reface with moulded fabrics. This, together with plate No.2 which you are at present modifying, will give us two plates to this specification. Yours faithfully, For Rolls Royce Ltd. | ||
