Derby 2424 xxxxxx Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Les.2/AP. November 19th.1937. The Projectile & Engineering Co.Ltd., Acre Street, Battersea, LONDON S.W.8. Dear Sirs, Torque Arms F.2424. Thank you for your letter of the 13th inst. In case you have not already solved the problem of the £300 tool cost, we were referring to your estimate of the 12th of July where you quoted for 1,500 torque arms at 10/6d. each and £300 tool cost. As your price for the 6 sample torque arms is so terrific we imagine that you found it necessary to go ahead with part of the production tools, without consulting us. We hope this clears the position. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. Handwritten notes: 20013? H46. | ||
