| -2- 6th. October 1938. spindle perhaps 2½" longer - will you let us know whether this will present any difficulty. We are still waiting to hear from you as regards the promised quotations for the supply of these heaters, both as complete units and with the component prices split, including separate figures for the motor and rheostat (in lots of 200). We are likely to want 70 rheostats very shortly and would appreciate a quotation for these without delay (2.55 ohm resistance total). Yours faithfully, for ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
