Les garde-boue CAGNION

[Ebykr summary; the article’s text is not reproduced. The notice says that the mudguards made by the house of Raymond Cagnion, of Nemours, are characterized by the following points, which stay verbatim as a list:]

— la qualité du métal employé, alliage à haute résistance mécanique AG 15, inaltérable par oxydation et ternissure ; l’épaisseur est de 8/10 et 10/10 ;
— la qualité de la présentation ;
— la forme ogivale, déposée en 1947 et dont découlent les 5 modèles présentés par la Maison.

[Ebykr summary, after the list. The notice adds that these mudguards, intended exclusively for the bicycle, are made with tooling designed and perfected without outside help, a purely in-house achievement, and that the paint decoration is carried out at the factory.]

[A firm notice in the magazine’s own column, text only. The heading is set in bold sans-serif aligned at the right, with the firm name in wider capitals, and the body is set in italic serif type with the maker’s name in roman and small capitals. A dash introduces each item of the three-part list. No drawing, photograph, signature or agency mark appears, and no text from the reverse of the leaf shows through. A small open ring below the last line, an ornament marking the end of the notice, sits at the foot of the crop. The right edge of the column is slightly ink-smudged on several line ends.]
