| 1166 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}8/MH.{M. Huckerby} 9th. June, 1939. Messrs. Smith's Jacking Systems Ltd., Jackall Works, Edgware Road, LONDON, N.W.2. Dear Sirs, We have not yet received any of the six experimental portable jacks which you are making for us. This causes us great inconvenience because we have cars running about without any jacks, and also prevents us settling the length of jack we require and the position of the jack bracket. Will you please let us know how soon we may expect these jacks, or at any rate, one of the 15" variety. Yours faithfully, for ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
