| 1332. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Gry. {Shadwell Grylls} 6/MH. {M. Huckerby} 29th. December 1938. H.E.Price, Esq., Messrs. Dunlop Rubber Co. Ltd., Fort Dunlop, Erdington, BIRMINGHAM. Dear Mr. Price, We want to order from IndiaProduction 20 HP. with 4-speed box and Front Wheel Brakes's half a dozen inner tubes with aero valves to your No.7066 shown on DDS.5778. I do not know whether you have mentioned this matter to them, and I was unfortunately still in France when Mr. Worth came to Derby, the other day. Could you write to Worth explaining the situation from your point of view so that we can go ahead with the order for tubes without "treading on anyone's corns". You may be interested to hear that we have got to hand the pressed steel wheel nuts to keep them tight. Yours sincerely, | ||
