Ross, Purchasing Agent Gentlemen:- We have your letter of December 12th and also acknowledge receipt of your order No. 25328 for ( 1 ) Trico Visionall Windshield Wiper. The blue print you have submitted indicates that our Model " D " Deluxe Visionall will be the proper length and type and we are sending one of these to you immediately It will be billed at $7.00 and we shall be very much pleased to have you forward it to your company in England. You will receive herewith literature describing the Visionall, which we hope you will also forward. The sample is finished in Black Enamel, but we can also supply Visionalls in Chromium Plate at $8.75 each. The Visionall is not unknown in England, as we have been selling them over there for the past two or three years, and in fact, a year or two ago equipped one of the cars belonging to the Prince of Wales. We have recently arranged for manufacturing the Visionall Wiper in our British Factory, whose address is Trico-Folberth Limited Trico House Edgware Road, Cricklewood London, N. W. 2, England Perhaps our British Factory would be the best place for Rolls-Royce of England to purchase their supplies, or to get other information if they desire it quickly. We have men at our British Factory that are highly qualified on the Visionall, and we are sending them a copy of this letter, in order that they may get in touch with your English Factory and give any assistance that may be desired. Yours very truly, TRICO PRODUCTS CORPORATION W. J.{Mr Johnson W.M.} Chellew | ||
