[A ruled advertisement in black and white, set in a thin rectangular frame and split into an upper picture-and-text band and a lower address band separated by a double horizontal rule. At the upper left, inside its own ruled box, is a line drawing with dense stipple and hatch shading of a cycle bell seen from the side: a domed cap shaded with dots, a dark rim, a long threaded striker rod ending in a small ball at the right, and a bracket with a split clamp ring and two bolts beneath for fixing to the handlebar. At the upper right, the name “””SONN-NETT””” is set in tall condensed black capitals between quotation marks and underlined with a double rule, followed by “(déposé brevete)” and “pour cycles et cyclomoteurs” in a light narrow sans-serif, then “SIMPLE, LÉGER” and “ROBUSTE” in heavy italic capitals, “sans mécanique” in a bold condensed face, a short double rule and “Toutes couleurs” in large heavy condensed type. In the lower band, “FOURETS frères,” stands in very large heavy condensed type with “Constructeurs” in light italic to its right, and below it five centered lines of addresses and telephone numbers in mixed bold, italic and roman faces, with the head office line framed by small dash-and-colon ornaments. No signature or agency mark is visible, and no text from the reverse of the leaf shows through.]
