[A ruled panel advertisement in black line work on a single-line frame, with no color. Four accessories are drawn large in line engraving with fine hatching and heavy solid cast shadows, each with its name set beside it in bold sans-serif capitals preceded by a small descriptive word. At the upper left a toe clip is drawn from above at an angle, its long tongue ending in a loop and its strap curving over a ribbed pedal cage; the name CHRISTOPHE is engraved along the tongue and on the pedal. At the upper right a long cylindrical pump runs diagonally from the lower left to the upper right, lettered ZEFAL on the handle and barrel and SOLIBLOC course in script on the shaft, with a small shield-shaped badge near the lower end that carries the word LAPIZE. At the lower center a dome-shaped bicycle bell with a clamp ring and thumb lever is drawn on a short bar, its small round striker marked AFA. At the lower right a looped leather strap is drawn in a twisted coil with the name Lapize in script lettering along its band. The labels CALE-PIEDS and CHRISTOPHE, POMPES and ZEFAL with SOLIBLOC in italic roman capitals below, TIMBRES and AFA, and COURROIES and LAPIZE are placed in staggered positions down the sheet; the maker names are the largest type. No address, signature or agency mark appears. Lines of text from the reverse of the leaf show through faintly behind the drawings.]
