| 200B Copy of letter from Messrs. Alford & Alder (Engineers) Ltd., Deacon Street, Walworth, London, S.E.17. 1159. 8th. Dec. 1937. Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd., DERBY. Gentlemen, Further to our quotation dated the 18th. ultimo we have pleasure in confirming that if this business is placed with us, you can consider that the lump sum paid of £470. 0. 0d. would entitle you to take possession of broaches, jigs, fixtures, and gauges as shown on the list attached. At the moment we cannot give exact quantities of the various gauges as these would not be decided until the job was completely tooled. We also have pleasure in enclosing herewith our quotation for supplying these parts for the alternative quantities of 500 sets, 1000 sets and 5000 sets as requested, and trust that we have now given you all the information required. The tool charge does not include for any of the stamping dies as the price quoted for the stampings includes the die cost. Trusting that we shall be favoured with your instructions in due course, and assuring you of our best attention. We are, Gentlemen, Yours faithfully, for ALFORD & ALDER LTD. P.T.O | ||
