Dear Sirs,

Some time ago, you supplied us with short inserts to your drawings C.1.12 and C.1.21.

We would now like to try similar inserts to suit 75 mm. bore, everything else being the same.

Will you therefore, prepare a drawing, let us have these prints, and supply 12 inserts in Hicrome.

Yours faithfully,

for ROLLS ROYCE. LTD.,
