Rolls Royce Ltd., DERBY. 21st October, 1936. Dear Sirs, For the attention of Mr. Rowbotham. We have much pleasure in enclosing you a copy of our new BLUECOL booklet which we would ask you to carefully read. We have gone most carefully into the subject of anti-freeze and we feel sure you will agree that the haphazard methods which have been in use in the past must cease in the interests of all, therefore, we are publishing the freezing points of Ethylene Glycol and Glycerine anti-freeze so that the motorist knows what protection he is getting. Yours faithfully, p.p. S. SMITH & SONS (MOTOR ACCESSORIES) LIMITED. WP To avoid delay all envelopes should be addressed to the firm. | ||
