WHEN REPLYING PLEASE REFER TO X/LGT/10. 13th.May,1937. Messrs.Rolls-Royce,Limited, DERBY. For the attention of Mr.West. Dear Sirs, We are returning the short length of High Tension Cable which you sent to us for various tests, and also some of the important results obtained from these tests in our Laboratory. As we have already informed you over the telephone, the Cable compares favourably with ours, with the exception of the Ozone Test, in which it is definitely inferior. Yours faithfully, JOSEPH LUCAS LIMITED. Technical Sales Department. | ||
