Swindell}20/JH Messrs Rolls-Royce Limited, Experimental Department, DERBY. 4th.February, 1939. FOR THE ATTENTION OF MR.SWINDALL. Dear Sirs, We thank you for your letter of the 2nd. instant, and regret that our enamel is still not up to standard. Mr.Worth intends visiting you on Tuesday, between 11 and 12 noon, with various samples, when perhaps you would be so kind as to give us some assistance on the job through your own enamelling department, as we ourselves are genuinely worried over the matter of finish. We have today dispatched to you one American and one English cartridge for your test rig, and would mention that we have found the English product at least as good as the American. Yours faithfully, For & on behalf of BRITISH FILTERS LTD. T C Worth DIRECTOR. | ||
