[A full-width advertisement in black and white with no outer frame. “HUTCHINSON” spans the head in very large heavy condensed capitals. Below it a dark panel at the left carries the dates “1853” and “1953” in large pale numerals and a striped, dotted tire tread drawing that runs diagonally down the left side. To the right, “pneus” is set in a slanted brush script, with four lines of product names in tall condensed capitals beneath it and a smaller list of accessories lower down. In the center a small comic figure in a striped top hat, spotted trousers and a mustache is drawn in line, bending over a tire held in a wooden stand with short lines suggesting work on it. A broad arrow points down toward a white box at the lower left lettered “100 ANS D’EXPÉRIENCE DANS L’INDUSTRIE DU CAOUTCHOUC” in bold condensed capitals. Large tire casings drawn with bold stripes and halftone dots curl across the lower right. No artist signature is readable; a tiny illegible mark may sit in the dotted shading at the left edge near the arrow.]
