| 1282. (Experimental Dept.) Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Gry {Shadwell Grylls} 6/R. 2nd March 1937. L.G. Callingham, Esq., Shell-Mex House, Victoria Embankment, LONDON. W.C. 2. Dear Sir, Mr. Robotham is at present away in the States, and will not be back until about the middle of April. We do not think it would be worth your sending us a special drum of the new fuel, but if you will let us know the moment any particular petrol pump in this neighbourhood has this fuel, we will fill up from it, and let you know the result. Yours faithfully, For ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
