| Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry{Shadwell Grylls}4/R.{Sir Henry Royce} 261/3.3. 12th October, 1938. N. Rollason, Esq., The Manor House, Tittensor, STOKE-on-TRENT. Dear Mr. Rollason, I opened your letter to Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} who is away from the Works for a week. I have been in communication with our Sales Department in London, and they say the reason you cannot get a car from Dex Garages is because these people have already sold their initial allotment. If, however, you will communicate - preferably by telephone - with our Bentley Sales' Manager, Mr. Bleaney, he will tell you where you can get a chassis almost immediately. Bleaney will be at Earl's Court during almost the whole of the Show, but you will be able to get in touch with him there. Yours sincerely, | ||
