REGENT 5138 TELEGRAMS: MANAGERIAL PICCY, LONDON 16th May 1934. Messrs. Rolls Royce Ltd., (Experimental Department), D E R B Y. Dear Sirs, POWERPLUS Supercharger No. 10/317. We write to confirm our telephone conversation with you this morning, when you informed us that the above supercharger, which was at present unused, was likely to be too small for your present requirements, and asking us whether we could supply you with a Powerplus Supercharger No. 11, ex stock. Unfortunately, we are not carrying a stock of No. 11's at the moment, but we could make one up and supply it to you, for experimental use only, in three to four weeks. We believe that you have our literature giving technical details of all our Superchargers, and you will therefore be aware that the maximum speed of the No. 11 Supercharger is 4,500 r.p.m. We shall be glad to learn your wishes hereon. Yours faithfully, For and on behalf of SUPERCHARGERS LTD. G.S. Fisher Secretary. | ||
