Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Std.28/JH. 5th November, 1936. Messrs. Rolls Royce Ltd., Experimental Dept. DERBY. Dear Sirs: In reply to your favour of the 4th instant, we will send you the £4.10.0. Model Heater which has been found adequate in every way in this country, and the only difference between this model which we are selling and the more expensive types is that the core is slightly larger, but of course, the larger heaters are sold in America because the conditions there are much colder, and in the winter it is often 20° below Zero. May we suggest that you test out the standard model which we are selling, which is the Model H-30, and this we will be sending up to you in the next 2/3 days. We have been honoured with an order from the India Office for fitment to Ambulances for shipment to Mesopotamia against all competition, and we would mention that the HaDees Company are the largest makers of these Heaters in the world. As mentioned the price of the Heater we shall be despatching, Model H-30, is £4.10.0., and the discount to you will be 40%. Yours faithfully, p.p. R.M. PAPELIAN LIMITED.
