Dear Sir, We beg to thank you for your further communication of the 11th instant and from the description enclosed we gather that the features claimed for your lamp are by no means novel. There are lamps in existence in this country which possess the features of non-dazzle sharp cut-off beams and which deflect the beam for cornering. Thanking you for your information, We remain, Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
