| X/536 Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from ROY.{Sir Henry Royce} ROY{Sir Henry Royce}9/MG2.2.27 -------------------------------- The North British Rubber Company would much appreciate news from us regarding the set of "Clincher" Tyres made in Rapson quality which we have under observation here - approximate mileage, present condition, etc. etc. They are quite prepared to submit a further set or sets for trial on exceptional terms. It would be policy on our part, perhaps, to accept their offer, in view of the Tyre war now proceeding, in which the North British Rubber Company are taking an active part. ROY.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
