[A ruled text-only advertisement in a thin single-line frame. “MANIVELLES” is in large light sans-serif capitals above “DURAX” in very large, heavy slab-serif capitals with a rough inked edge. Two lines of condensed sans-serif capitals follow, then a small cluster of three round bullets, then the firm’s name in large condensed roman type, the capital line in small type and the town in slanted capitals. There is no illustration, signature or agency mark.]
[This advertisement shares page 26 of L’Officiel du cycle with advertisements for Sturmey-Archer and Rutter, each held here as its own record, and one for the Babymoto lightweights.]
