Les freins SIDER
[Ebykr summary; the article’s text is not reproduced. The notice states that, whether the brakes are shoe brakes (freins à tasseaux) or Cantilsider brakes (freins cantilsider), Sider brakes are in every case regarded as a remarkable production. Luxuriously finished, extremely supple and giving powerful braking, both the shoe brakes and the Cantilsider brakes are very easy to fit, a quality the motorcyclist (Motociste) values at its worth. The Établissements Sider also make front brakes for cyclomoteurs, as well as every model of luxury brake grips (poignées de luxe): chrome steel and treated APM alloy.]
[A short column of printed text under a one-line heading in bold roman, set flush right, with the firm name SIDER in capitals. The body is set mostly in italic with a few phrases in bold roman, among them “Luxueusement présentés, d’une souplesse extrême et procurant un freinage puissant” and the firm name in small capitals in the last paragraph. Paragraphs are indented and the lines are justified. A solid black round dot stands at the top center of the crop, above the heading. There is no drawing, no photograph, no signature and no address in this notice.]
