FORT DUNLOP ERDINGTON BIRMINGHAM Messrs. Rolls Royce Limited, DERBY. For the attention of W.R.Robotham, Esq. 12th February, 1935. Dear Sirs, We recently had the pleasure of a visit from Mr. Mattinson and were able to show him what we hope were certain points of interest in connection with our manufacture and the facilities for testing our products. Mr. Mattinson expressed the opinion that amongst other things our skidding track and wobble machine might conceivably be of interest to you in connection with chassis tests, and this letter is to assure you that if you feel we can be of any assistance to you in this direction we shall be very happy to place our test facilities at your disposal. Perhaps you will be good enough to let the writer know if there is anything we can do in this matter. Yours faithfully, FOR THE DUNLOP RUBBER CO.LIMITED. [Signature] Manager - Car Manfrs.
