Les fabrications DUNOIS

[Ebykr summary; the article’s text is not reproduced. As in previous years the author reviews the articles and novelties of the Vincennes firm J. Dunois et Fils, founded in 1890, which continues by creating appreciated novelties for its faithful clientele. The Mistral pumps still enjoy great popularity. This year a junior model is welcome, the Mistral-Confort pump in sizes 400 × 28 and 300 × 28, in nickel-plated brass and polished chrome, intended for scooters and vélomoteurs. With the Mistral-Moto pump the series of deluxe Mistral pumps is complete.]

[Ebykr summary, continued. A new chain guard (carter) for a child’s bicycle is very strong, undeformable and unbreakable, in polished aluminum alloy stamped from 20/10 (2 mm) stock; it completes the series of the reputed Alu-dur guards. Finally the Établissements J. Dunois et Fils have created, exclusively for cyclomoteur engines, steel-sheet covers (capotages) of harmonious shape fitted with ventilation slots. As a reminder the author recalls the Radieuse pumps in brass and in light metal, the luggage carriers, the toe clips, the footrests, including the new rear footrest (repose-pieds AR) for the tandem seat of cyclomoteurs.]

[A text-only passage in one column. The heading is set flush right in heavy bold roman capitals and lower case. The text beneath is justified italic roman type with paragraph indents; product and firm names such as Mistral, Mistral-Confort, Alu-dur, Radieuse and Dunois (in small capitals) are in upright roman type among the italic lines. There is no illustration or signature. A small open black circle, the closing ornament of the article, is centered below the last line.]
