Les équipements électriques PAGANI
[Ebykr summary; the article’s text is not reproduced. The author notes that while this column often speaks of French equipment makers, there are very important firms abroad with similar activities. Among them the Maison Pagani in Italy, a producer of electrical equipment for cycles and motorcycles, has taken rank among the most important. The company’s output is numerous and varied, running from the battery pocket lamp (lampe de poche à pile) to headlights of all types by way of the horns (avertisseurs). Some of the firm’s most notable products are listed:]
— Projecteurs pour motocyclettes de tous types ;
— Compteurs kilométriques pour motos et cyclomoteurs ;
— Encadrements de plaques moto et auto ;
— Antibrouillard auto ;
— Volants magnétiques ;
— Feux arrière ;
— Avertisseurs ;
— Commutateurs interrupteurs ;
— Dynamos pour cycle ;
— et enfin boîtiers-lampes torches et de poche.
[Ebykr summary, closing. The distributor for France is the Établissements Utilauto, and the products are put on the market under the marque C.E.V.]
[A block of column text only, set in italic type under a bold roman heading at the head of the column; the sentence on the range of products is partly in bold roman, the name “Pagani” is in small capitals and “Utilauto” is split across two lines in small capitals. Ten items are set as a dashed list down the middle of the column. There is no picture, signature, address block or stand number; a small round printer’s ornament closes the column at the foot.]
