COPY of letter received from: Messrs. The Southwark Manufacturing Co. Nelson Passage, High Street, Birmingham.5. Messrs. Rolls Royce Limited., Derby. July 17th 1933. Ref. ROY{Sir Henry Royce}/MS.2/FS.{F. Steele} Dear Sirs, We are in receipt of your letter of the 15th instant and note you require six Nickel Alloy CORRUJOINTS similar to EB.308, but about half the thickness. The nearest metal we would make these in from stock is .008", and we would like to know if this would be suitable. We could get the metal to any required thickness but it would take a little time to get it from the Mill. We await your instructions, and are Yours faithfully, For THE SOUTHWARK MANF. CO.LTD.
