Rolls Royce Ltd. Experimental Department, DERBY. Dear Sirs, We have sent you under separate cover today, one pair of NOTEK Headlamps, latest design. There were several small details that were not to our own satisfaction with the sample lamps sent to you some time ago. You will see from the new samples that we have evolved a new lens which allows for still more illumination where it is actually wanted. These lamps in their present design are the very best that are obtainable. You will see during the test that there is a broad near illumination, the maximum of medium range illumination, also very wide and these two combined give a far reaching strong beam of light measuring at least 600 yards. We hope you will find these lamps satisfactory and await with pleasure you considered report. Please let us know what you intend to do with the old lamps. Assuring you always of our most careful and immediate attention. Yours faithfully, NOTEK ELECTRIC COMPANY LIMITED. C. Casper. per [Signature] Return to S.H. Light | ||
