Dear Sir, We thank you for your letter together with sample cone. We have tried similar schemes at various times without succes. There is also a proprietary article on the market which works on very similar principles. We therefore regret that we cannot make use of this device. Yours faithfully, for ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
