WHEN REPLYING PLEASE REFER TO X/LGT10. Messrs. Rolls-Royce Limited, DERBY. 7th June 1933. Dear Sirs, For the attention of Mr. West. Confirming our telephone conversation of todays date we have despatched to you under separate cover two HF.{H. W. Frost - Coachwork Inspector}722 Alto horns arranged for dual note purposes. These horns have incorporated a new guide spring which has been given a thorough test. It would seem to be an improvement on the existing type. We should be pleased if you will have these horns put on a chassis and undergo a severe test as arranged when you visited our works in company with your Mr. Hancock. We shall await your comments which are regarded as a special interest. Assuring you of our best attention at all times to your requirements. Yours faithfully, JOSEPH LUCAS LIMITED.
