Les bicyclettes DELANGLE

[Ebykr summary; the article’s text is not reproduced. The Delangle marque is called the marque of records. The 1952 cyclotouriste model is held to be certainly the finest production of the firm, as it carries the latest improvements and the most luxurious equipment. The notice then gives a summary list of its characteristics, run into the text and continuing in the next image:]

Dérailleur 4 vitesses Cyclo ; guidon cyclotouriste Pivo ; freins
Jeay, poignées guidonnets ; manivelles traitées 3 attaches ;

[A firm notice in the magazine’s own column, text only, set in serif roman type with the marque name and a few product names (Delangle, Cyclo, Pivo, Jeay) in italic, under a bold sans-serif heading aligned at the right with the name DELANGLE in wider capitals. No drawing, photograph, signature or agency mark appears. The crop ends in the middle of the characteristics list, after the words “3 attaches ;”, so the notice is incomplete here.]

[Ebykr summary; the article’s text is not reproduced. The notice goes on to say that the machine is enameled superbly over an anti-rust undercoat, in colors green, ivory, metallic blue and transparent red. It is made in a man’s frame, a lady’s frame (cradle type) and a mixte frame. The notice adds that although the firm has a fairly large factory, it stays faithful to the exclusive manufacture of bicycles. It currently builds about forty models of cycles in fifteen different colors, and the size of its stock allows it to fill to the letter the many orders from its agents. Its business also extends to export.]

[A continuation of a firm notice in the magazine’s own column, text only, set in serif roman type with a first-line indent for each paragraph. The crop opens in the middle of the equipment list begun in the previous image, at the words “jantes chromées chrolux”, and the notice ends with a short paragraph on export. No heading, drawing, photograph, signature or agency mark appears in this image, and no text from the reverse of the leaf shows through.]
