We require new supplies of Spauldite interleaving for our experimental cars. Some should be 2" wide and some 2 1/4" wide. The most economical length for the 2" width would be 75", and in any case, not shorter than 49". For the 2 1/4" width, the most economical length would be 81", and in any case, not shorter than 55". We want two dozen of each width of the longer lengths, or three dozen of the shorter ones. Yours faithfully, for ROLLS ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
