Our Ref.......LTD/LU 103-105-107-109, SCRUBS LANE, WILLESDEN, LONDON, N.W.10. 4th July, 1936. Messrs. Rolls-Royce, Limited, Derby. For the attention of Mr.Steadman. Dear,Sirs, re NON-ERODIBLE CORE (Patent 398110). With further reference to your letter of the 29th June, we desire to advise you that we have not yet received your Drawing E.87003, and shall be obliged if you will advise us if same has been despatched. With regard to side plates, owing to the inherent strength and practical indestructability of our type of Radiator Core, side plates are not necessary. With film types of Radiators strong side plates and tanks are necessary in order to support same, but with our type of construction the Core or Block is so strong that it enables the use of light top and bottom tanks and eliminates side pieces or plates. Yours faithfully, GALLAY LTD. L. A.{Mr Adams} Delaney | ||
