For the att. of the Manager, Fibreboard Dept.

Dear Sir,

We have tried out the sample of Mutocell which you kindly supplied and have found it excellent for panel work.

You will readily appreciate, however, that this is of more use to the Coachbuilding side than the chassis.

Our only criticism would be with regard to weight, the amount of material necessary to line the panels of a whole body would we feel sure be on the heavy side.

Thanking you for the opportunity of making the trial,

We are,

Yours faithfully,

FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD.
