Les productions Henri GAUTHIER

[Ebykr summary; the article’s text is not reproduced. The notice presents this old Lyon firm of worldwide reputation, which offers the following program under its “White Star” and “Lionroue” marques:]

— Selle double pour grosses motos et scooters Motobécane,
Peugeot, Terrot, Standard ;

[The notice is text only, set in a single column cut from a magazine page. The heading “Les productions Henri GAUTHIER” is in bold roman type aligned to the right. Below it an introductory sentence is set in italic, followed by a list item that opens with a dash and a bold roman phrase, with the names of the motorcycle makes in italic. The crop ends partway through the list, with the next item cut off. There is no drawing, photograph, signature or address in this part, and no text from the reverse of the leaf shows through.]

— Siège AR type confort (coussins mousse avec ou sans
poignée, tous coloris) ;
— Sacoches doubles (simili ou cuir) se fixant au porte-bagage
et munies de catadioptres ;
— Selles pour cyclomoteurs 48 cm3, vélomoteurs 85 et
100 cm3, à gros ressorts de suspension et catadioptres fixés sur
le châssis de la selle. (Ces deux dernières productions — sacoches
et selles à catadioptres — font faire un grand progrès dans le
sens de la sécurité et de la sauvegarde de l’usager des deux roues) ;
— Selle G 17, la selle des champions du monde ;
— Selle type « Souplex » suspendue, réglable (dessus en
caoutchouc ou simili) : confort et souplesse.

[The notice is text only, set in a single column cut from a magazine page. It is a list of seven items, each opening with a dash and a bold roman phrase followed by italic explanatory wording, with a few figures such as 48 cm3 and 100 cm3 and the word “catadioptres” also in bold. A parenthetical remark in the fifth item runs across several lines in italic. A solid black round dot closes the notice at the foot, centered under the text. There is no drawing, photograph, signature or address, and no text from the reverse of the leaf shows through.]
