Expl. Dept. Ha/Rn.{Mr Robinson}4/MJ. May 30th,1930. Messrs. Hardy Spicer & Co.Ltd., Birch Road, Witton, Birmingham. Dear Sirs, We have recently experienced a considerable amount of trouble with our fabric couplings. We think it would be advantageous if you could pay us a visit to examine some of these failures. We do not know whether you conduct any tests to check the quality of the couplings on production. If not, we suggest that some alteration in specification may have taken place to produce the present results. Yours faithfully, For Rolls-Royce Ltd. | ||
