[A tall ruled advertisement in black and white, a panel inside a thin rectangular border. A headline in large roman capitals with the name in quotation marks runs across the top, with two lines of slanted spaced capitals beneath. The center is a large drawing of a freewheel cluster in fine line engraving with dense parallel shading, seen at an angle: four toothed sprockets of different sizes stacked on a hub body whose face ring is lettered “DÉMONTAGE” with an arrow, “BREVETÉ”, “S.G.D.G” and “HIRY’S” in quotation marks. A vertical line of spaced capitals about the patent reads upward at the left and a second vertical line reads downward at the right. The firm name with a raised abbreviation and the Saint-Étienne address are set across the foot in large capitals. No artist signature or monogram is visible.]

[This advertisement shares its unnumbered page of L’Officiel du cycle with an advertisement for Persib-Lux, held here as its own record, and one for the Mosquito auxiliary engine.]
