Tuesday, August 12th. 1930 Messrs Rolls Royce Ltd., Derby. Dear Sirs, During the Autumn and Winter months your Service Departments will no doubt receive enquiries from clients about precautions to be taken against frost, the merits of different types of anti-freezing solutions and so forth. If you care to have them we should be happy to send you full particulars of the research work we have carried out on this subject. We believe you would find them useful and interesting. We shall issue during the coming season to Garages and other interested parties a list of the quantity of antifreeze required for the protection of various makes and types of vehicles, and for this purpose shall be obliged if you will favour us with a statement of the capacity of the cooling system of your current models. Yours faithfully, GLYCERINE LIMITED. | ||
