File Vauxhalls Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}2/ML. A.Taub,Esq., Vauxhall Motors Ltd., LUTON. Bedfordshire. Dear Taub, I heard rumours about the disagreeable visits suffered by Vauxhall's Engineering Department, and the facts were confirmed by Jones of "Vacuum" when he visited us this week. I sincerely hope that you are none the worse for your experience and that your personnel have not suffered unduly. We have been extremely fortunate here in spite of Lord Haw-Haw's broadcasts to the contrary. I understand that you are now interested in blowers for your new engine; also that it has about reached the production stage. We have got all sorts of interesting war-time jobs here, when you have time to come and pay us a visit. Yours sincerely, | ||
