| CONTINUATION SHEET NO. 2. I. T. & R.{Sir Henry Royce} CO. (G.{Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} B.) LTD. At the present moment we have not got the complete equipment for the production of the 33 x 6.75 size of India Super Blue Tube, but we hope to be in a position to deliver these tubes in about 3/4 weeks from today. We may say that these India Super Blue Tubes now command a premium over standard makes in this country, of from 25 to 75%, according to the size, amongst users of high speed heavy vehicles, on account of their heat-proof qualities. We are, therefore, confident that these tubes will prove eminently suitable for large fast cars like the Rolls-Royce. Trusting that we may have the pleasure of receiving your instructions to send you a set of these tyres for test purposes, and awaiting your comments with interest, Yours faithfully, INDIA TYRE & RUBBER CO. (G.B.) LTD., General Sales Manager. | ||
