| cont... 16.12.37. We estimate the cost of the special tools for cropping and piercing to be approximately £10.0.0d. for each different shape of flange. This figure will be slightly reduced if the piercing operation is omitted. The price quoted for the mounting is based on the current price of materials, and we reserve the right to modify this figure for mountings delivered after March the 31st.1938. We hope that the modifications which we have been able to make to our quotation will enable you to place your order with us, and we look forward to hearing from you at an early date. Yours faithfully, SILENTBLOC LIMITED, [Signature] TECHNICAL DEPARTMENT. | ||
