Rolls Royce Ltd., Derby. Dear Mr. Salt, We are enclosing herewith copy of a letter we have received from Messrs. R.{Sir Henry Royce} Lister & Co, of Dursley, together with a tracing of their blue print, which is a bush with a big end. As the application is rather unusual, that is with an overhung crank pin and splash lubrication, we feel that we should like your opinion on this matter before deciding to make dies, and proceeding with the making of bushes. Perhaps you will let us know in due course whether there is any feature about the application that we should take care of or on which we should advise Listers when writing inconnection with this matter ? Yours sincerely, F.{Mr Friese} Blackith. [Red circular sticker with 'Endeavoury' in script] | ||
