DEVON HOUSE 173-175 GREAT PORTLAND STREET LONDON W1 Directors: Walter Dandie Charles F.{Mr Friese} Bennett WD{Mr Wood/Mr Whitehead}/CH. 18th February, 1920. Messrs. Rolls Royce, Ltd., Nightingale Road, D E R B Y. Dear Sirs, Your request for a second copy of the Smith Motor Accessories catalogue has been handed to us by Messrs. S. Smith & Sons (M.A.) Ltd., but we much regret that at the present moment we are not able to send you a second copy, very much as we should like to. There is a very great demand for these catalogues, and unfortunately our printers are not sending them through in sufficiently large quantities to enable us to meet this demand, and we are, therefore, obliged for the present to ration out the catalogues as far as possible. However, we have made a special note of your request, and as soon as we are able to do so, another copy will be sent you. Yours faithfully, p.p. SMITHS PUBLICITY SERVICE LTD. [Signature: W. Dandie] Director. | ||
