Rolls-Royce Limited,
DERBY

5th April 1941.

Dear Mr. Robotham,

Attached is the data on the 6.50-16 6 ply and 4 ply tyres which was promised in Mr Healey's note of the 24th March.

I am sorry this is rather later than promised, but the testing machine gave trouble and delayed the job.

Yours sincerely,

[Signature]
