Rolls Royce Ltd., DERBY. Dear Sir, I see Mr. Hornby wrote you yesterday, but he was not familiar with the transaction which was handled by this Department, since it was a Model 801T which we sent you some little while back for test purposes, and which you now wish to retain. I have instructed our Accounts Dept. to invoice this to you at the manufacturer's cost of 13 guineas. The enclosed folder gives you particulars of our two current receivers, and I notice from Mr. Hornby's letter he quoted you the manufacturer's price for the 16 guinea model, namely £9.15.0. I hope that this gives you the information required, and shall now be glad to have your order for whichever set is selected. Yours very truly, PHILCO RADIO & TELEVISION CORPORATION OF GREAT BRITAIN LIMITED. Manager CAR RADIO DIVISION. Encl. AFDK. Directors: James M.{Mr Moon / Mr Moore} Skinner, U.S.A. C. L. Dyer, BRITISH.
