Cornercroft Ltd., Ace Works, Queen Victoria Road, COVENTRY. For the attention of Mr. Corner. Dear Sirs, Thank you for sending the drawing of the steel spider. We are not altogether in agreement with it as it stands, and we think we can incorporate a positive grease seal in the dimensions you have provided. We shall be writing you again in a day or so showing you our suggestions so that you can proceed with a set of discs for experimental test. Yours faithfully, for ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
