[A ruled advertisement in black and white inside a thin black rectangular frame, text with line drawings and no halftone. The top lines read “VÉLOCISTES” in heavy condensed capitals at the left and a two-line slogan in a wide rounded sans-serif at the right, trailing off in dots. A heavy condensed sans-serif line names the tool, ending in “A. C.” in wide bold letters. Three lines of slanted sans-serif describe it, the last in bold slanted type. At the left is an outline drawing of a bicycle wheel lying flat, seen at a steep angle, with spokes, a freewheel on its hub and the tool, with a Y-shaped handle, set on the freewheel; below the wheel a drawing of a vise holds the axle, and the large letters “A.C” stand beside it. At the upper right a squat cylinder with a slot across its top and two small screws is drawn in outline with shading, and at the lower right four small ribbed blocks are shown in pairs joined by dotted lines, the loose jaws of the tool. A short arrow points from the vise toward them, with a two-line caption above it. A column of freewheel names in tall condensed capitals runs down the right edge, ending in “etc.” A caption in bold sans-serif runs along the foot at the left. There is no firm address, no artist signature and no agency mark.]
