Dear Mr. Spicer, We are sending you herewith a scheme for Spare Wheel Container, RB.{R. Bowen}10011. You will see that we have shown the retaining palm as at present which we think will give us all the strength that is required, but will be much lighter than a die-casting. If you will look this over and let us know if you consider it satisfactory from the manufacturing point of view, we shall be obliged. Yours sincerely, Enclosure, Blue Print No.RB.{R. Bowen}10011. | ||
