INCHINNAN SCOTLAND LR{Mr Ellor}/DB{Donald Bastow - Suspensions} FROM THE FACTORY'S SPECIAL REPRESENTATIVE Saturday 4th November, 1933 W.A.Robotham, Esq., Messrs. Rolls Royce Ltd., DERBY. Dear Robotham, Just a line to tell you that I am now the proud possessor of a 20 H.P. Rolls Royce. A very ancient one, I am afraid – 1928 – but still the engine has been well looked after and the body is by Park Ward and just what I was wanting, there being plenty of room for my family and, or luggage. I should very much like to call at Derby and see you before you leave for America to have a word about tyres and to show you my new car. I could either come on the 15th or 16th of November, or any time after the 23rd. At the present moment we are very busy with the Commercial Vehicle Show at Olympia and the Scottish Show begins at Glasgow on the 17th. I should be most grateful if you could let me know which day will be most convenient to you. Yours sincerely, Rothes. PLEASE REPLY TO 30, St.John's Wood Road, NW.{N. Walker - Patents}8: | ||
