| 82200 Expl. Dept. 17th June, 1931. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}10/KT. Ernest Scheider Esq. Lincoln House, 18, Victoria Street, London, S.W.1. Dear Sir, With reference to your letters of the 10th and 16th instant. In view of the royalties asked for by the Maybach Co. of Berlin, these dogs have ceased to interest us and it would therefore serve no useful purpose for you to bring the car to Derby to demonstrate to us. Thanking you for your offer. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
